6112.41.00.10 - Women's (659)

This HTS category, 6112.41.00.10, specifically classifies women's swimwear that is knitted or crocheted, made of synthetic fibers, and contains by weight five percent or more of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread. This includes a wide range of garments designed for swimming or water sports, such as bikinis, tankinis, one-piece swimsuits, and swim shorts or briefs, provided they meet the specified material composition and are intended for adult females. The inclusion of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread is crucial for the stretch and form-fitting properties characteristic of modern swimwear.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 6112.41.00.20, which covers the identical types of swimwear but is specifically intended for girls. The primary differentiator between these two subheadings is the intended wearer, based on size and design. Both fall under the broader classification of women's or girls' swimwear of synthetic fibers containing elastomeric content.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this subheading relies strictly on the established criteria: knitted or crocheted construction, synthetic fiber composition, the presence of elastomeric yarn or rubber thread in specified quantities, and the garment's intended use as swimwear for women. Correct identification of these attributes is essential for accurate customs declarations and duty assessment.
