Sourcing this category from India
Chapter 63 covers made-up textile articles, sets, worn clothing and rags — home textiles being a star Indian export. Bed linen, towels, curtains, cushion covers and table linen from Panipat, Karur and Solapur lead the trade. Classification separates finished made-up articles by function from worn clothing, used textiles and rags traded for recycling.
How to read this code
63 is the two-digit HS chapter for textiles, made up articles. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many textiles & textile articles lines — check our import guides for your market.
