Overview
This classification, HTS 6201.40.20, covers "Other" articles within the broader category of men's or boys' overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks, windbreakers, and similar outerwear made of man-made fibers. Specifically, this subheading is for garments that do not fall under the more precisely defined categories within heading 6201. The key criterion for inclusion here is that the garment is constructed from man-made fibers and is not a raincoat, nor is it primarily composed of wool or fine animal hair as specified in the sibling category 6201.40.15.
To distinguish this category from its sibling, HTS 6201.40.15, this subheading is intended for garments where the weight of wool or fine animal hair does not exceed 36%. Therefore, if a man-made fiber coat contains 35% wool, it would likely be classified here, whereas a coat with 36% or more wool would fall under the sibling category. This ensures that garments are classified based on their predominant material composition, a crucial factor in tariff assessment.
This classification acts as a residual category for man-made fiber outerwear, but it is further divided into more specific subcategories. These subcategories, such as "Raincoats" and "Other," allow for a more granular classification based on the garment's intended purpose or specific design features that differentiate it from general "other" items. Understanding these subdivisions is essential for accurately determining the correct tariff rate and ensuring compliance with import and export regulations.
