Last updated: August 2026 dataKnitted and crocheted fabrics not elsewhere classified by fiber type fall under this residual heading, which captures a diverse range of materials including silk, metallic yarns, glass fibers, and other specialty textile inputs. The US schedule includes a dedicated line for fabrics containing 85% or more silk or silk waste (6006901000) alongside a broader catch-all for other textile materials (6006909000). India and Mexico lead US supply, with Pakistan, Italy, and Turkey also among the top sources — a supplier mix that spans handcraft-oriented silk knits from South Asia to technical and fashion fabrics from Europe. The breadth of fiber types covered makes precise fiber identification and weight-percentage documentation essential at entry.

A fabric must contain 85% or more by weight of silk or silk waste to be classified under 6006901000. Fabrics with lower silk content that are not classifiable under another specific fiber heading would fall under the general residual line 6006909000. Importers should obtain fiber content documentation from the mill and, where the silk percentage is near the threshold, consider laboratory testing to confirm classification.
Beyond silk, this heading can capture knitted fabrics made from metallic yarns, glass fibers, paper yarns, or blends of uncommon fibers that do not meet the weight thresholds for classification under cotton, wool, synthetic, or artificial fiber headings. Technical textiles for filtration, medical, or industrial applications may also appear here if their fiber composition falls outside the more specific headings. Importers of unusual fiber blends should consult a licensed customs broker to confirm the correct classification.
