HS codes
Textile exports fall under HS chapters 50–60. Classify precisely — the first six digits are international, the rest are India's ITC-HS extension. Your HS code drives duty, FTA eligibility and the paperwork the buyer's customs will expect.
Export requirements & certifications
- RCMC from TEXPROCIL (cotton) or the relevant textile EPC.
- OEKO-TEX Standard 100 is widely expected; GOTS for organic cotton.
- For the US: fibre content and country-of-origin labelling; for the EU: REACH compliance on dyes and finishes.
- Buyer tech pack, lab-dip and pre-production sample approval.
Requirements change and are buyer- and destination-specific — confirm the current rules with your export promotion council and the buyer before you ship.
Documentation
Every textile shipment needs the core set: commercial invoice, packing list, shipping bill, bill of lading or airway bill, certificate of origin (preferential where an FTA applies), and the category-specific certificates above. See the full export documentation checklist and the textile export guide.
Finding buyers
The reliable method: identify companies that already import textile in your target market from customs data, reach the named procurement contact, and open on the trade signal — not a generic pitch. EximHub does that end to end. Read how to find export buyers or how customs trade data works.
