What HS code 5906 covers
Heading 5906 is for textile fabrics that have been rubberised. In plain words, it is cloth combined with rubber. Some sources spell it rubberized textile fabrics, but the heading is the same.
The heading leaves out anything that fits heading 5902. If your fabric is that kind, read about HS 5902 tyre cord fabric instead.
The Harmonized System is kept by the WCO, and 5906 belongs to Chapter 59. That chapter groups impregnated, coated, covered or laminated textiles, plus textile articles made for industrial use.
What each six-digit code under 5906 means
The three codes split the heading by shape and by how the fabric is made. Adhesive tape comes first. All other rubberised fabric is then split by construction.
- 590610: rubberised adhesive tape that is no wider than 20 cm.
- 590699: other rubberised fabric made in any other way, which means it is not knitted or crocheted.
How to pick the right 5906 subheading
Work through the questions in order. Stop at the first answer that fits.
Countries may add extra digits after the first six. Always confirm the full code with your customs broker or the authority in your market. The HS code classifier can also help you check your answer.
- Then it is not in 5906.
- Use 590610.
- Is it any other rubberised fabric that is knitted or crocheted? Use 590691.
- Is it any other rubberised fabric? Use 590699.
