6202.40.20 - Other

This HTS classification, 6202.40.20, pertains to "Other" women's or girls' overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, and similar outerwear constructed from man-made fibers, excluding those classified under heading 6204. It specifically addresses coats within this group that do not fall into more narrowly defined subcategories. The key characteristic for inclusion here is the material composition – predominantly man-made fibers – and the absence of specific ornamentation or functional design that would place them elsewhere.

Distinction from its sibling category, 6202.40.15, is crucial. While both are under the umbrella of women's or girls' coats of man-made fibers, 6202.40.15 is reserved for garments containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. Therefore, 6202.40.20 encompasses those garments where the man-made fiber content is significant, but the wool or fine animal hair content is below that 36% threshold, or absent entirely.

Within this category, further subdivisions exist to refine classification. The subcategories will differentiate based on the intended use and construction of the outerwear. For instance, a distinction will likely be made between garments primarily designed as raincoats, featuring water-resistant or waterproof properties, and "Other" categories that cover a broader range of general-purpose coats and cloaks. This allows for precise classification based on functional design alongside material composition.
