Last updated: August 2026 dataMaterial composition is the defining classification criterion here: artificial flowers, foliage, and fruit made from anything other than plastics — including feathers (6702901000), man-made fibers (6702903500), and all other materials (6702906500) — fall under heading 6702.90 rather than 6702.10. China leads US imports by a wide margin, with Thailand and Vietnam also supplying this heading. The man-made fiber line is particularly relevant to the floral and event-décor industries, where silk-look polyester arrangements are widely traded.

Classification of composite articles follows the essential character rule under GRI 3. If the fabric petals define the article's character, the arrangement would likely fall under 6702.90; if the plastic components predominate, 6702.10 may apply. A binding ruling from CBP is advisable for mixed-material assortments.
6702903500 is specific to artificial flowers made of man-made fibers (e.g., polyester, nylon), which covers the broad category of 'silk-look' fabric flowers. 6702906500 captures all other non-plastic, non-feather, non-man-made-fiber materials — such as paper, dried botanicals treated to resemble fresh flowers, or metal foil petals.
