HTS heading 6307 is a broad product category for “other made up articles, including dress patterns.” In plain language, it generally covers finished textile articles that are not more specifically described in another HTS heading. Examples can include certain made-up textile items, cleaning or polishing cloths, life jackets and similar textile articles, and paper or fabric dress patterns, depending on the product’s construction and use.
To reach the correct 8-digit HTS code, first confirm that heading 6307 is appropriate rather than a more specific heading elsewhere in Section XI. Then use the subheadings and statistical provisions, which commonly distinguish products by article type, material, whether they are knitted or woven, and other stated characteristics. The product’s actual construction and principal function matter more than its marketing name. Classification can require customs-broker or other qualified professional review when the facts are unclear.
What to check
- Describe the finished article precisely, including its function, dimensions, construction, and intended use.
- Identify the fiber or material composition and determine whether the item is knitted, crocheted, woven, nonwoven, coated, or laminated.
- Check whether another HTS heading specifically covers the article before using the residual “other” category in heading 6307.
- Read every subheading and statistical suffix under 6307, including any exclusions, unit-of-measure rules, and notes.
- Keep product specifications, photos, composition records, and supplier documents that support the selected 8-digit code; seek broker guidance for borderline classifications.

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.
