HS code for Blackout curtains, polyester
HS 2022Destination FRConfidence 0.72Reviewed by a second modelCurtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances > Other > Of synthetic fibres
Section XI: Textiles and textile articles · Chapter 63: Other made-up textile articles; sets; worn clothing and worn textile articles; rags · Heading 6303: Curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances
Why this code
Finished curtain panels are 'made up' under Section XI Note 7. Note 8 therefore excludes Chapters 54 and 59 (5407, 5903) for made-up goods. Heading 6303 expressly covers curtains (GRI 1). A one-sided blackout coating or lamination does not move the article to Chapter 39 unless the fabric is fully embedded or coated on both sides (Chapter 59 Note 2(a)(3); Section XI Note 1(h)). Polyester is a synthetic fibre (Chapter 54 Note 1). Woven versus knitted is not stated. Most blackout curtains are woven (often triple-weave) polyester, so 'Other > Of synthetic fibres' (630392) is the most probable subheading under GRI 6. If the fabric is knitted, 630312 applies. Heading 7019 is irrelevant because no glass fibre is indicated.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 6, Section XI Note 7, Section XI Note 8, Chapter 59 Note 2(a)(3), Chapter 54 Note 1.
Alternatives considered
| Code | Description | Why not |
|---|---|---|
| 6303.12 | Curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances > Knitted or crocheted > Of synthetic fibres | Applies only if the curtain fabric is knitted or crocheted; blackout curtains are usually woven. |
| 5903.90 | Textile fabrics impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, other than those of heading 5902 > Other | Covers coated fabric in the piece; made-up curtains are excluded from Chapter 59 by Section XI Note 8 and fall in 6303. |
| 6303.99 | Curtains (including drapes) and interior blinds; curtain or bed valances > Other > Of other textile materials | Applies only if a non-synthetic fibre predominates by weight, which is unlikely for polyester curtains. |
Information that would confirm the code
- Is the curtain fabric woven or knitted?
- Is it 100% polyester, or what is the fibre composition by weight?
- Is the blackout layer a coating on one side only, or is the fabric fully embedded or coated on both sides with plastics?

Other > Other
Confidence 0.80. The product is a blackout polyester curtain, not a net curtain (6303929010) and not a nonwoven (6303921000), and the data gives no support for those specific lines, so the residual 'Other' line 6303929090 applies, with reduced confidence because fabric construction and coating are not stated.
