5702.49.20.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS classification, 5702.49.20.00, pertains to woven textile floor coverings that are not tufted or flocked, and are presented in a made-up condition. Specifically, it encompasses finished goods within the broader category of pile construction carpets and rugs. The "Other" designation indicates that these items are not primarily constructed from the materials specified in sibling categories at this level.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by the material composition of the floor covering. While 5702.49.10 covers cotton-based products and 5702.49.15.00 covers jute-based products, this classification is for woven pile floor coverings made up of any textile materials other than cotton or jute. This could include a wide array of synthetic fibers, wool, silk, or blends thereof, as long as they form a pile construction and are finished articles.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges entirely on the material composition and construction of the finished woven pile floor covering. Importers and exporters should ensure that the primary textile material, after accounting for cotton and jute, is correctly identified to assign goods to this specific code.
