Sub-classifications

Commodity Code
Description

Overview

This HTS category, 6201.40, specifically classifies men's or boys' outerwear garments such as overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles, when these are constructed primarily from man-made fibers. This designation is crucial for accurate customs declarations, ensuring these garments are distinguished based on their material composition. The term "man-made fibers" encompasses a broad range of synthetic and regenerated fibers, and the dominant fiber content will determine classification within this subcategory.

Distinguishing 6201.40 from its siblings is straightforward: 6201.20 pertains to articles made of wool or fine animal hair, 6201.30 covers items predominantly of cotton, and 6201.90 includes those made from other textile materials not specified in the preceding categories. Therefore, the defining characteristic for 6201.40 is the presence of man-made fibers as the primary constituent material of the garment.

The subcategories under 6201.40 further refine the classification based on the garment's style and intended use. Articles are divided into "Overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks and similar coats," which generally refer to longer, more formal outerwear, and "Anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers and similar articles (including padded, sleeveless jackets)," which typically denotes shorter, more casual, or sport-oriented outerwear designed for protection against wind and weather. This distinction aids in identifying the specific type of outerwear within the broader category of man-made fiber garments.
