6110.90.90.14 - Subject to man-made fiber restraints (645)

This HTS classification, 6110.90.90.14, covers sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests), and similar articles that are knitted or crocheted and made from textile materials other than cotton or wool. Specifically, this category applies to garments classified under the broader heading "Of other textile materials" and then further refined as "Other" within that group. The defining characteristic for this sub-classification is that the articles are subject to specific man-made fiber restraints, indicated by the code (645).

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is crucial for accurate classification. Unlike 6110.90.90.10, which applies to garments subject to cotton restraints, or 6110.90.90.12, subject to wool restraints, this node specifically addresses articles where the primary textile component is a man-made fiber that is subject to import quotas or limitations. Therefore, the material composition and the presence of these specific man-made fiber restraints are the key differentiating factors.

As a leaf node, this classification represents a specific endpoint within the HTS structure, meaning there are no further subdivisions. For practical classification purposes, importers and exporters should carefully examine the material composition of the knitted or crocheted garments. If the primary material is a man-made fiber and the article falls under the broad definitions of sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, or similar items, and the specific man-made fiber is subject to the restraints noted by code (645), then this HTS code is the appropriate classification.
