Guide to Scarves and Hijabs

Scarves and shawls are pieces of cloth worn on the head, around the neck or over the shoulders; this category covers manufacturers and wholesale suppliers of scarves, shawls, fular (thin silk cloth usually tied at the neck), hijab caps (bone) and türban (a snug-fitting headscarf). Here "hijab" means the headscarf itself; for hijab dresses and other hijab clothing, see modest clothing.
Machine-knitted scarves and beanies are in knitwear and sweaters. For scarf fabric, see chiffon and satin suppliers; to buy scarves with other garments, see wholesale clothing.
MOQ and price: fabric, print and sewing are quoted separately
Scarves have no single MOQ: fabric, print and sewing each have their own, so ask for all three in the quote. A company with fabric in stock can usually take smaller quantities; a custom color or design raises the minimum. Rotary screen printing needs a separate cylinder screen per color, and Cotton Incorporated's 2018 comparison of cotton printing methods calls it generally not profitable for short yardages. Digital printing needs no screens, so it suits sampling and small runs. Fiber, print method, finishing, size and quantity set the price.
What a "silk" label commits a supplier to
As of October 11, 2026, the labeling exemption list (Annex 5) of Turkey's fiber labeling regulation does not name scarves, shawls or fular; agree the composition label. A fiber name may be used only for a fiber that meets its Annex 1 definition: silk is fiber obtained exclusively from silk-secreting insects. If a company says "silk scarf," ask for the fiber percentage and, if needed, a test report. For your own market's rules, see our label requirements guide and ask a specialist.
Approve edge, size and fastness on the sample
A machine-rolled, overlocked or hand-rolled edge changes the look, lead time and price. Pull on the sample's edge to test for fraying; thin, slippery fabric can fray more easily and take longer to sew. State the size and tolerance; compare the size after washing and ironing with the approved sample. Ask for color fastness test reports; standards are in our printing guide. For subcontracted edge work, ironing and packing, see CMT workshops and ironing and packing.
Bursa silk and the "Bursa İpeği" name
According to TÜRKPATENT's geographical indication certificate, Bursa was for centuries the main city where silk fabric was woven and sold. Today's company count in Bursa is unsourced; check each profile.
"Bursa İpeği / Bursa İpek İpliği" (Bursa Silk / Silk Yarn) was registered on March 29, 2019 as a geographical indication (indication of source). Only silkworm feeding on Bursa-grown mulberry leaves and cocoon spinning must take place in Bursa; the certificate says yarn reeling need not, and does not list weaving or sewing. Ask a company using the name for a document showing the yarn's source.

Frequently asked questions
What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for scarves and shawls?
There is no single standard figure. Fabric, print and sewing each have their own minimum; a company with fabric in stock generally works with smaller quantities, and a custom color or design raises the minimum. Cotton Incorporated's 2018 comparison of cotton printing methods says rotary screen printing is generally not profitable for short yardages, while digital printing needs no screens and suits sampling and small runs. Ask for the three minimums separately in the quote.
What is the difference between a scarf, a shawl and a fular?
According to the Turkish Language Association (TDK) dictionary (our translation), an eşarp (scarf) is cloth tied on the head or neck; a şal (shawl) is a wide wrap used to cover the shoulders (the dictionary also defines şal as a valuable wool fabric with special motifs, generally woven in India); and a fular is usually a type of thin silk cloth tied at the neck. A name alone is not enough: have the dimensions, fiber and fabric structure written on the quote.
Do scarves and shawls need a fiber content label?
As of October 11, 2026, Turkey's fiber labeling regulation (Official Gazette, April 25, 2015, no. 29337) requires textile products placed on the market to be labeled with their fiber composition (art. 15), and the label must also be in Turkish (art. 17). The list of products exempt from the labeling requirement (Annex 5) does not name scarves, shawls or fular. Check the current text on mevzuat.gov.tr and ask a lawyer or compliance specialist how it applies to your product. The labeling rules of the market you sell in are a separate matter.
Which HS code applies to scarves and shawls?
In the World Customs Organization's Harmonized System (HS 2022), shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils and the like that are not knitted or crocheted fall under heading 62.14; knitted or crocheted ones are classified in subheading 6117.10. Heading 62.14 splits by fiber: silk or silk waste (6214.10), wool or fine animal hair (6214.20), synthetic fibers (6214.30), artificial fibers (6214.40) and other textile materials (6214.90). The HS is six digits; each country sets the digits beyond that in its own tariff. As of October 11, 2026, confirm the exact code for your product with a customs broker.
