HS Code 6911Tableware, kitchenware, other household articles and toilet articles; of porcelain or china
2 six-digit codes · Heading 10 of 13 in Chapter 69 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
Use this page to pick the right six-digit code and to see who trades these goods.
Heading 6911 splits exactly two ways. Goods answering to “Tableware, kitchenware, other household articles and toilet articles; of porcelain or china” classify either at 691110 or at 691190, and the wording in the table below is the whole of what separates them. The heading is number 10 of 13 in Chapter 69, Ceramic products, which runs to 30 six-digit codes in all.
What HS code 6911 covers
Think of porcelain tableware for serving food, porcelain kitchenware for the cooking area, and other household articles of porcelain. Toilet articles of porcelain or china also belong here.
The key test is the material. If the item is porcelain or china, it fits heading 6911 when it is used at the table, in the kitchen, in the home or for the toilet. If the item is made of another kind of ceramic, it belongs in a different heading. People also search for this as HSN code 6911. The number is the same.
If you are not sure how to classify a product, try the HS code classifier first. Good HS classification at this step saves problems at the border later.
How to choose between 691110 and 691190
Start with what the item does. That means items used to serve, eat or prepare food. Code 691190 is for household and toilet articles of porcelain or china that are not named anywhere else in heading 6911. The letters n.e.c. mean not elsewhere classified.
Check 691110 first. If the item is tableware or kitchenware, you can stop there. Use 691190 only when the item is a household or toilet article that does not fit 691110.
Write down the material, the use and the shape of the item before you decide. A clear product note makes it easier to defend your choice if a customs officer asks.
6911 vs 6912 and 6913: porcelain or other ceramics
The difference between HS 6911 and 6912 is the material. Heading 6911 is for porcelain or china. The two types of goods can look alike, so check what the product is made of.
Two other headings cause mix-ups. Heading 6913 covers statuettes and other ornamental ceramic articles, so a decorative figure goes there and not in 6911. Heading 6910 covers ceramic sinks, wash basins, baths, bidets, water closet pans and similar sanitary fixtures. Small toilet articles of porcelain stay in 6911, while sanitary fixtures go to 6910.
Both of these headings are ceramic goods in Chapter 69. The question is always the same: what is the item, and what is it made of?
