6112.49.00.90 - Other (859)

This HTS code, 6112.49.00.90, encompasses women's or girls' swimwear, knitted or crocheted, that are made from textile materials other than those specifically itemized in preceding subcategories. Therefore, this classification applies to swimwear not primarily composed of silk or silk waste, as specified in the sibling category 6112.49.00.15.

The scope of this "other" category is broad, intended to capture any swimwear meeting the general criteria but not fitting into more specific material classifications. Practical examples include swimwear made from cotton, synthetic fibers like polyester or nylon, or blends where no single material dominates to the extent of being specifically listed elsewhere at this level. The determining factor for inclusion here is the absence of specific material percentages or types that would direct classification to a more granular HTS code.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to explore. Classification into 6112.49.00.90 is definitive once the swimwear has been identified as knitted or crocheted women's or girls' swimwear and has been excluded from more specific material-based subheadings. The classification hinges on identifying that the item is swimwear and then ruling out any preceding, more narrowly defined material composition subheadings.
