HTS heading 5804 is a broad product category for certain tulles, other net fabrics, and lace. It covers these goods when they are not woven, knitted, or crocheted fabrics, and it excludes fabrics classified in headings 6002 through 6006. The goods may be presented in the piece, in strips, or as lace motifs.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, first identify the product’s construction and confirm that heading 5804 applies. Then narrow the classification using the relevant subheading descriptions, commonly including the material (such as man-made fibers, cotton, or other textile materials) and the product type, such as tulle, net fabric, lace, or lace motifs. The final code can depend on technical details, so a customs broker or binding classification ruling may be appropriate for uncertain cases.
What to check
- Confirm the fabric’s construction; do not use heading 5804 if it is woven, knitted, or crocheted, or if another heading specifically covers it.
- Determine whether the item is tulle, another net fabric, lace in the piece or in strips, or a lace motif.
- Identify the fiber or material composition from the product specification and verify how the HTS subheading describes that material.
- Check whether the product is fabric yardage, strips, or separate motifs, because presentation can affect the subheading.
- Compare the current HTS subheading notes and product descriptions, and seek broker advice or a binding ruling when construction or material is unclear.

How to find your code in this category
A heading is a product category. To get the exact duty, narrow from this 4-digit heading to a sub-category (usually by material), then open the 8-digit code that matches your product.
Open any code in the tables below to see its exact duty rate, a duty calculator (enter your shipment value → estimated duty and landed cost), the rate-change history chart, and the country-by-country breakdown (including Section 301/232 add-on duties).
Why you have to click in: a single category can contain products with very different duties. The rate depends on the specific product — its material and construction — and on the country of origin, and those only get pinned down at the 8-digit code level. That is why this page points you to codes instead of showing one rate for the whole category.
