What HS code 5905 covers
It covers fabrics that are made to cover walls and that have been impregnated, coated, covered or laminated. That treatment is what ties it to the rest of its chapter.
The wording comes from the WCO Harmonized System, the shared list of product names that customs offices use. Some traders call the same kind of code an HSN code. The idea is the same: a number that says what the goods are.
If your product is a fabric that hangs on a wall as a finish, this is the heading to check first. If it is a fabric used for another job, look at the neighbouring headings below.

HS code 5905 vs nearby Chapter 59 headings
Many fabrics in Chapter 59 are coated or laminated, so it is easy to pick the wrong heading. These are the closest ones, using their official names:
- 5903: textile fabrics impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, other than those of heading 5902.
- 5904: linoleum, and floor coverings made of a coating or covering applied on a textile backing. The key word is floor. Wall coverings belong to 5905.

Other headings in Chapter 59
Chapter 59 also holds book-cover cloth and canvas (5901), tyre cord fabrics (5902), textile wicks (5908), textile hose piping (5909) and textile belts for transmission or conveying (5910). None of these is a wall covering, so they are only useful here for ruling out a wrong guess.
