HTS code for bed sheet: document fiber, construction, and bedding form

Planning Use only. Broker review required for Entry Use.

A bed sheet file needs bedding facts. The review depends on fiber content, woven or knit construction, fitted or flat form, pillowcase or duvet set contents, thread count, size, printing, finishing, and origin. "Bed sheet set" on an invoice is not enough.

Use this page to prepare the Planning Use record before broker review. The file should identify each bedding item and separate the textile facts from retail packaging.

quick answer

For "hts code for bed sheet", collect fiber content by weight, woven or knit construction, flat sheet versus fitted sheet, set contents, size, thread count, fabric weight, printed or dyed status, elastic, hem, origin, and supplier code.

A cotton woven fitted sheet is not the same file as a polyester microfiber sheet, knit jersey sheet, disposable nonwoven sheet, or bedding set with pillowcases. The record should show the exact bedding articles imported.

facts to collect for a bed sheet

Collect:

Product name, invoice wording, SKU, and product page.
Sheet, label, care label, packaging, elastic corner, hem, print, and set contents photos.
Fiber content by weight for each item in the set.
Woven or knit construction, fabric type, thread count, yarn type, and fabric weight when available.
Bedding form: flat sheet, fitted sheet, pillowcase, duvet cover, bed skirt, mattress protector, or set.
Size: twin, full, queen, king, crib, hospital, or custom.
Printed, dyed, bleached, brushed, microfiber, sateen, percale, jersey, flannel, or waterproof finish.
Country of origin and production support.
Supplier HS or HTS code and source notes.

If the product is a set, list every item. A fitted sheet, flat sheet, and pillowcase may share packaging but still need facts.

missing facts

Mark the file incomplete when:

Fiber content by weight is missing.
Woven or knit construction is unsupported.
Set contents are not listed.
Fitted versus flat form is unclear.
Size, thread count, or finish status is missing.
Origin is assumed from shipment route.
Supplier code is unsupported.
Close CBP CROSS rulings have not been checked.

These gaps can move the review between bed linen, pillowcases, mattress protectors, nonwoven disposables, or other textile articles.

HTS candidate notes

Build candidate rows for the actual goods: cotton bed sheet, man-made fiber bed sheet, knit sheet, fitted sheet, flat sheet, pillowcase set, duvet cover, mattress protector, or disposable sheet. Each row should cite a textile fact.

Rejected alternatives should stay in the file. If the product is not a mattress protector because it lacks waterproof backing, say that. If it is not woven because the fabric is jersey knit, record the construction.

authority sources

Use USITC HTS for tariff text. Use CBP CROSS for bed linen, sheet sets, pillowcases, mattress protectors, and textile home goods rulings.

planning path

Start with packaging and label photos. Then write a table for each item in the set: fiber, construction, form, size, finish, origin, and supplier code. If the label covers the set but not each article, request item-level support.

Duty stack notes should include origin, special tariff program claims, and textile exposure tied to fiber, construction, and country.

questions importers ask

Can I use this page as the HTS code for a bed sheet?

No. Use it for Planning Use. Entry Use needs broker or customs authority review.

Yes. List fitted sheets, flat sheets, pillowcases, and any other bedding articles separately.

Does knit versus woven matter?

Yes. Construction should be supported by label, spec sheet, or sample review.

planning boundary

This bed sheet HTS page is a planning artifact. It is not an Entry Use classification, not a binding ruling, and not a legal opinion. The importer remains responsible for reasonable care and must obtain broker or customs authority review before filing.
