6202.40.65.21 - Girls' (435)

This HTS category, 6202.40.65.21, specifically classifies girls' anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles that are not knitted or crocheted. These garments are characterized by their design as outerwear intended for protection against the elements, encompassing items such as padded or sleeveless jackets, and are explicitly designated for girls. The key material composition for this subclassification requires the garment to contain 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair.

The distinction from its sibling category, 6202.40.65.11, lies solely in the intended wearer. While both are for similar types of outerwear and share the same material requirement of containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, 6202.40.65.11 pertains to women's wear, whereas this category exclusively covers girls' garments. Both are situated under the broader heading for women's or girls' overcoats, capes, anoraks, windbreakers, and similar articles of man-made fibers.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is finalized at this level based on the garment type (anorak, windbreaker, etc.), intended wearer (girls'), and specific material content (36% or more wool or fine animal hair). Importers must ensure that the physical characteristics and composition of the goods precisely match these criteria to ensure correct classification and compliance with customs regulations.
