6301.30.00 - Blankets (other than electric blankets) and traveling rugs, of cotton

This HTS category, 6301.30.00, specifically covers blankets and traveling rugs that are not electric and are made from cotton. This includes a wide variety of soft, textile coverings designed for warmth and comfort, intended for use at home, during travel, or as decorative items. The defining characteristic is the primary material composition – cotton.

It is important to distinguish this category from its siblings. 6301.10.00.00 pertains exclusively to electric blankets. Categories 6301.20.00 and 6301.40.00 cover similar textile coverings but are distinguished by their material composition: wool or fine animal hair for the former, and synthetic fibers for the latter. 6301.90.00 serves as a residual category for any other blankets and traveling rugs not specified elsewhere.

Within this cotton classification, further subdivisions exist based on the construction method of the textile. Subcategory 6301.30.00.10 applies to woven blankets and traveling rugs made of cotton, indicating the interlacing of warp and weft yarns to create the fabric. The alternative subcategory, 6301.30.00.20, encompasses other types of cotton blankets and traveling rugs that are not woven, which could include knitted, felted, or other non-woven constructions.
