SITCSection 6
U.S. imports of tufted textile floor coverings of other textile materials (nes) (SITC 65949) totaled $7.8M in April 2026, traded with 45 countries.
Importers of Tufted Textile Floor Coverings of Other Textile Materials (NES) paid $1.1M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 14% on $7.7M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataTufted floor coverings made from textile materials not elsewhere specified — such as cotton, jute, sisal, or other natural fibers outside the wool and manmade-fiber categories — serve niche residential and specialty markets where natural aesthetics or sustainability credentials drive purchasing decisions. Cotton tufted bath rugs and jute-blend area rugs are commercially significant examples within this residual classification. Because this heading captures a heterogeneous range of fiber types, precise fiber identification and weight-based predominance analysis are critical to avoiding misclassification into more specific headings. Importers should ensure that product specifications and laboratory fiber reports are available at the time of entry.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
This heading captures tufted floor coverings whose pile is made from natural fibers such as cotton, jute, sisal, coir, or blends of these materials that do not classify under wool, nylon, or other manmade fiber headings. Cotton tufted bath mats and accent rugs are common commercial examples. If a product contains a blend, the fiber present in the greatest proportion by weight generally governs classification.
Classification of blended-fiber tufted rugs depends on the predominant fiber by weight in the pile. If cotton exceeds polyester by weight, the rug would classify under a natural fiber heading such as this one; if polyester predominates, it would fall under the manmade fiber heading. A laboratory fiber analysis report quantifying each fiber's percentage is the standard supporting document CBP expects for blended textile floor coverings.
