Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This HTS category, 6110.20, specifically addresses sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests), and similar articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are knitted or crocheted and primarily constructed from cotton. These items are designed for warmth, comfort, or style and fall under the broader classification of knitted or crocheted apparel. The defining characteristic for classification under 6110.20 is the presence of cotton as the principal textile material by weight.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by the specific textile fiber content. While 6110.11 and 6110.12 cover articles of wool or fine animal hair, and 6110.30 pertains to those made from man-made fibers, 6110.20 exclusively focuses on cotton-based garments. Similarly, 6110.90 encompasses articles made from other textile materials not covered by the preceding headings.

Within 6110.20, two subcategories exist to provide further specificity. 6110.20.10 is designated for articles containing 36 percent or more by weight of flax fibers, indicating a blend where cotton remains dominant but flax is also present in a significant proportion. All other cotton-based knitted or crocheted apparel not meeting the flax fiber threshold are classified under 6110.20.20, which serves as a residual category for pure cotton or cotton blends not otherwise specified.
