HS Code for Canvas Tote Bag / Textile Shopping Bag: 4202.22.80

Classification Notes

Canvas tote bags, jute shopping bags, and fabric handbags with a textile outer surface are classified under 4202.22. The exact 8-digit subheading depends on fibre: 4202.22.10 for outer surface of man-made fibres (polyester, nylon), 4202.22.80 for cotton/other natural textiles. Promotional tote bags printed with a logo are still 4202.22. A tote bag with PU-coated canvas outer is borderline — if the coating is visible and dominant, it may be classified as 4202.22 (man-made coating) or 4202.29 (composition leather). Reusable supermarket 'bag for life' non-woven polypropylene bags are 4202.22.10 or 6305 (sacks and bags for packing of goods) depending on construction — a one-off shopping bag without handles is 6305, while a reusable tote with handles designed for repeated carrying is 4202.22. Leather-trimmed canvas totes remain 4202.22 unless leather forms the majority of the outer surface.
