6117.90.90.03 - Of cotton (345)

This HTS classification, 6117.90.90.03, specifically pertains to knitted or crocheted parts of garments or clothing accessories that are made of cotton. This category encompasses components such as sleeves, collars, cuffs, pockets, or panels that are intended to be incorporated into larger articles of apparel or accessories. The defining characteristic for inclusion here is the material composition; the parts must be predominantly of cotton.

This category is distinguished from its siblings by its explicit material requirement. For example, 6117.90.90.05 covers parts made of wool or fine animal hair, while 6117.90.90.10 is for parts composed of man-made fibers. The "Other" category (6117.90.90.15) serves as a residual classification for knitted or crocheted parts not specifically covered by the cotton, wool, or man-made fiber designations.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 6117.90.90.03 relies solely on the confirmation that the knitted or crocheted part is intended for an article of apparel or accessory and is predominantly made from cotton. This ensures accurate duty assessment and trade data collection for cotton-based garment components.
