HS code 63101090 – Other
This classification covers various textile materials that are no longer suitable for their original use, typically sorted for recycling or industrial applications. It includes a range of textile waste, such as rags and worn articles made from twine, cordage, rope, or cables. Under Vietnam’s 2026 tariff schedule: a preferential (MFN) import duty of 50%, VAT of 8/10 and measured in “kg”.
What is HS code 63101090?
This specific category encompasses sorted textile waste materials not explicitly detailed in other subheadings within HS 631010. It includes a broad spectrum of textile remnants, such as cut fabric pieces, worn-out textile articles, and scrap from cordage, rope, and cables, all of which have undergone a sorting process. These materials are primarily destined for industrial uses, including wiping cloths, polishing materials, or as raw material for textile recycling.
For customs clearance in Vietnam, precise classification under this 'Other' subheading often hinges on the specific composition and physical state of the textile waste, along with verifiable evidence of sorting. Importers should be ready to present documentation confirming the material's textile origin, its condition (e.g., cut, worn, shredded), and that it has been sorted to remove non-textile components or categorized by material type. Differentiating these sorted 'other' textile wastes from unsorted mixed textile waste or specific types of rags (e.g., knitted or crocheted) is essential for accurate declaration.

A 50% gap - illustrated on a 100,000 USD shipment, that is roughly 50,000 USD saved in import duty.
But only if the shipment has a valid C/O and meets the rules of origin (RVC/CTC, etc.). The wrong C/O form or an RVC shortfall → duty reassessment and penalties at a post-clearance audit.
* The amount is illustrative only, not a commitment. The % gap comes from Vietnam’s 2026 tariff schedule; the preference actually granted depends on each shipment’s rules of origin.
