It sits in the knitted part of the Harmonized System, and the fibre decides the final code.

Each one carries its own customs description, and the exact wording below is what a classification has to match. The heading is number 3 of 6 in Chapter 60, Fabrics; knitted or crocheted, which runs to 44 six-digit codes in all.

What HS code 6003 covers
Three tests decide if a fabric belongs here. It must be knitted or crocheted. It must not fall under heading 6001 or 6002.
Knitted fabric is made by looping yarn together, not by weaving it. Crocheted fabric is also made from loops. Customs treats both the same way in this chapter.
The path runs from Section XI to Chapter 60 and then to this heading. The customs description is long because each part of it narrows the scope. Read it as a checklist, from left to right. If one part does not fit your fabric, the heading is wrong.
Subheadings of 6003 by fibre: 600310 to 600390
Once a fabric passes the width test, the fibre decides the six-digit code. Here are short labels for each one. The full official wording is in the table above.
Synthetic and artificial fibres are not the same thing. Synthetic fibres are made from chemicals. Artificial fibres start from natural material that is then processed. Use the fibre that makes up the fabric, not the one on the label of the finished product.
- 600310: wool or fine animal hair knitted fabric
- 600320: cotton knitted fabric
- 600330: synthetic fibre knit fabric
- 600340: artificial fibre knit fabric
- 600390: other knitted fabric, made of none of the four fibres above

How to pick the right 6003 subheading
Work through these steps in order. Stop at the first step that fails, then move to a different heading.
If you are still unsure, run the product through the HS code classifier. Then match your result against the official wording above.
- Step 1: Confirm the fabric is knitted or crocheted, not woven.
- Step 2: Measure the width. It must not exceed 30 cm.
- Step 3: Check that it is not a pile fabric.
- Step 4: Check the elastomeric yarn or rubber thread content.
- Step 5: Pick the fibre: wool or fine animal hair, cotton, synthetic, artificial, or other.
