6104.29.20.34 - Subject to cotton restraints (348) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6104.29.20.34, specifically addresses knitted or crocheted trousers, breeches, and shorts for women or girls that are made from "other textile materials" and are not specifically covered by wool or man-made fiber restraints. The term "other textile materials" in this context typically refers to natural fibers other than wool, such as cotton, linen, and silk, when they are not subject to specific quantitative restrictions. The "Subject to cotton restraints (348)" designation is a critical identifier, indicating that importations falling under this code are subject to specific quotas or limitations as defined by trade agreements.

It is crucial to differentiate this subcategory from its siblings. HTS code 6104.29.20.36 covers similar garments but is specifically subject to wool restraints, indicating the primary fiber content or manufacturing origin is related to wool. Similarly, 6104.29.20.38 pertains to articles subject to man-made fiber restraints. Therefore, this classification hinges on the specific nature of the textile material and the applicable restraint regime.

As a leaf node in the HTS structure, this category does not have further subdivisions. Its precise classification relies on confirming that the garment is indeed knitted or crocheted, intended for women or girls, and falls under the "ensembles" or "suit-type garments" grouping, with the defining characteristic being its material composition and the associated cotton restraint. Importers must verify that the goods are manufactured from materials subject to the specified cotton restraints to ensure correct classification and compliance.
