U.S. imports of tufted wool & fine animal hair carpets & floor coverings (HS 570310) totaled $14.8M in April 2026, traded with 53 countries.
Importers of Tufted Wool & Fine Animal Hair Carpets & Floor Coverings paid $2.5M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 17% on $14.6M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataTufted floor coverings of wool or fine animal hair — whether hand-hooked or machine-tufted, made-up or not — are classified here, with the US schedule distinguishing hand-hooked constructions (5703102000) from other tufted wool goods (5703108000). Tufting inserts yarn loops or cut pile into a backing substrate, a fundamentally different manufacturing process from weaving, and that distinction drives classification out of the 5702 woven headings. India and China are the primary US import sources for this subheading. The hand-hooked line carries particular relevance for artisan rug importers, as it requires documentation of the manual production method.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Customs authorities typically require a manufacturer's affidavit or a government-issued certificate from the exporting country attesting to the hand-hooking process. Physical examination may also be used, as hand-hooked rugs exhibit irregular loop placement and backing characteristics distinct from machine-tufted goods. Misclassification between hand-hooked and machine-tufted lines can result in duty underpayment and penalties.
Yes. The presence of a latex or synthetic secondary backing does not change the classification of a tufted wool carpet, provided the chief weight of the textile component is wool or fine animal hair. The backing material is considered ancillary to the textile floor covering classification under Chapter 57 rules.
