6303.12.00 - Of synthetic fibers

This HTS category, 6303.12.00, specifically covers knitted or crocheted curtains (including drapes), interior blinds, and valances that are constructed from synthetic fibers. This designation hinges on the primary textile material used in their manufacture, which must be man-made, synthetic filaments or staple fibers. These items are intended for interior decoration and light control within buildings.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 6303.19, is the material composition. While 6303.19 encompasses knitted or crocheted curtains and blinds made from *other* textile materials (such as natural fibers like cotton or wool, or artificial fibers not classified as synthetic), 6303.12.00 is exclusively for those made from synthetic fibers. This distinction is critical for accurate customs declaration and duty assessment.

Within this category, further subclassification exists to refine the classification based on specific product types. The subcategories 6303.12.00.10 and 6303.12.00.90 allow for a more granular identification of whether the item is a specialized window shade or blind, or if it falls under the broader "other" classification for various curtain and valance types made from synthetic fibers.
