Description

Overview

HTS Code 6108 encompasses a range of knitted or crocheted garments designed for women and girls, primarily for indoor wear or as undergarments. This category includes items such as slips, petticoats, briefs, panties, nightdresses, pajamas, negligees, bathrobes, dressing gowns, and other similar articles. The defining characteristic for inclusion is the method of construction (knitted or crocheted) and the intended use or style, distinguishing these items from outerwear or specialized garments.

When classifying within Section XI, it is crucial to differentiate HTS 6108 from other chapters and headings. For instance, while Chapter 61 broadly covers knitted or crocheted apparel, HTS 6108 specifically targets intimate apparel and sleepwear for women and girls. It is distinct from Chapter 62, which covers woven apparel, and other chapters within Section XI that deal with fabrics, made-up textile articles, or specific types of garments like shirts or trousers. Unlike headings that might cover men's or boys' undergarments, this heading is exclusively for female garments.

The subcategories within HTS 6108 provide further specificity to facilitate accurate classification. These subdivisions are based on the type and function of the garment. "Slips and petticoats" refer to undergarments worn beneath skirts or dresses for modesty or to improve drape. "Briefs and panties" are designed as underwear. "Nightdresses and pajamas" are intended for sleepwear. The "Other" category serves as a catch-all for similar knitted or crocheted garments for women and girls that do not fit neatly into the preceding subcategories, ensuring comprehensive coverage.
