6104.29.20.40 - Containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste (748) 🖩

This HTS classification, 6104.29.20.40, specifically pertains to women's or girls' ensembles that are knitted or crocheted and are composed of 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Ensembles, in this context, refer to a set of garments designed to be worn together as an outfit. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is the predominant use of silk as the textile material.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, "Other," at the same level, is the explicit material requirement of silk. While other knitted or crocheted ensembles would fall under the broader "Of other textile materials," this specific classification is reserved for those where silk or silk waste forms the substantial majority of the fabric's weight. This precise material composition is critical for accurate duty assessment and trade regulation.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification under 6104.29.20.40 is final once the criteria of being a knitted or crocheted women's or girls' ensemble, and containing 70 percent or more silk by weight, are met. Importers should carefully review the fiber content declarations and the garment construction to ensure correct classification.
