Last updated: September 2026 dataFunctioning as a catch-all for textile furnishing articles not enumerated elsewhere in the schedule, this heading captures a wide range of decorative and functional home textile goods — from decorative cushion covers and table runners to specialty textile accessories used in interior design. The "not elsewhere specified" designation means classification here is appropriate only after confirming the article does not fit a more specific heading, making product description accuracy critical. Importers dealing in diverse home textile assortments frequently encounter this heading when sourcing mixed-category shipments.

Classification in an NES (not elsewhere specified) heading is residual — it applies only when no more specific heading covers the article. Importers should first evaluate whether the product fits headings for curtains, bedspreads, toilet linen, or other enumerated furnishing categories. If none apply, the NES heading is appropriate, but a binding ruling from CBP can provide certainty for high-volume or recurring shipments.
Decorative cushion covers and table runners are commonly classified under miscellaneous textile furnishing articles when they do not qualify as toilet or kitchen linen and are not specifically enumerated elsewhere. Fiber content and construction details should still be documented precisely, as they affect the applicable duty rate within this heading.
