Needlecraft sets consisting of woven fabric and yarn, whether or not with accessories, for making up into rugs, tapestries, embroidered tablecloths or napkins, or similar textile articles, put up in packings for retail sale

HTS code 6308.00.00 classifies imports of: Needlecraft sets consisting of woven fabric and yarn, whether or not with accessories, for making up into rugs, tapestries, embroidered tablecloths or napkins, or similar textile articles, put up in packings for retail sale. This line sits within Chapter 63 (Blankets and traveling rugs:), Section XI (Textiles and Textile Articles), and is catalogued as a heading in the USITC 2026 Basic Edition. The schedule specifies ad valorem (percentage-of-value) duty for this line. Getting the classification right is the single most important step in import compliance — a wrong code can mean overpayment of duty, shipment delays, or penalties at the border.

The general (MFN / Column 1 General) rate for HTS 6308.00.00 is 11.4%, which applies to most trading partners of the United States. A special preferential rate of "Free (AU,BH, CL,CO,E*,IL,JO, KR,MA,NP,OM, P,PA,PE,S,SG)" may reduce or eliminate duty when goods qualify under a free trade agreement such as USMCA, CAFTA-DR, or one of the bilateral FTAs. The Column 2 rate of 55% applies to imports from non-MFN countries such as Cuba and North Korea — a much higher historical "full" tariff.

Beyond the published rate, importers should check for Section 201 safeguards, Section 301 China tariffs, and any active AD/CVD orders that can materially change the real landed cost.
