There is no single HS code for stockinette. The heading depends on how the product is packed and sold: 6307.90 for bulk stockinette and bags for professional use, 3005.90 for stockinette or tubular bandage packed for retail sale for medical use, and 6307.10 for mutton cloth sold as cleaning cloth. Tahir Collection ships its standard stockinette under 6307.90. Your customs broker confirms the final code.

How to Use This Guide
- The first six digits are international (HS). Each country adds its own digits: the US HTS uses 10, the EU Combined Nomenclature 8 and India's HSN 8.
- Packing matters. The same roll can move from 6307.90 to 3005.90 when it is boxed and labelled for retail medical use.
- Duty rates and trade preferences (such as EU GSP+ for goods of Pakistani origin) depend on the final code and the origin documents.
- Send your broker the product specification, the packing description and a photo of the retail pack, if there is one.
Commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin show the HS code we ship under, the fibre content, the lay-flat width and the packing. If your broker wants a different code for your market, tell us before shipment and we will align the documents.
