6103.49.80.36 - Subject to wool restraints (459)

This HTS code, 6103.49.80.36, specifically classifies knitted or crocheted bib and brace overalls for men or boys when they are subject to wool restraints, identified by the restraint code (459). These garments are characterized by their suspenders or bib that extends over the chest, typically paired with trousers or shorts, and are made from knitted or crocheted wool-based textile materials. This classification falls under the broader category of men's or boys' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts of other textile materials, knitted or crocheted, excluding swimwear.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. Code 6103.49.80.34 covers similar bib and brace overalls subject to cotton restraints (359), while 6103.49.80.38 pertains to those subject to man-made fiber restraints (659). The "Other" category at 6103.49.80.60 (859) applies to bib and brace overalls not falling under specific restraint categories for wool, cotton, or man-made fibers. Therefore, the presence of wool as the primary textile material and the applicable wool restraint are the defining factors for this particular classification.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level is final, meaning that once a garment meets the criteria of being a knitted or crocheted bib and brace overall for men or boys, made of wool, and subject to wool restraints (459), it is definitively classified under 6103.49.80.36. Importers and exporters should ensure that any applicable documentation reflects this specific classification and any associated import/export requirements related to wool restraints.
