6204.21.00.30 - Skirts and divided skirts (442)

This HTS classification covers skirts and divided skirts specifically designed for women or girls, and importantly, those made from wool or fine animal hair. The "skirts and divided skirts" component, as noted in the description, refers to garment items that fall within the general definition of skirts, including those split to resemble trousers or shorts but are functionally skirts. The material composition is a critical determinant, confining this category to garments crafted from wool or fine animal hair.

Within the broader category of "Women's or girls' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear): Of wool or fine animal hair," this specific code distinguishes itself from its siblings by focusing solely on skirts and divided skirts. For instance, sibling categories cover entirely different types of garments such as jackets and blazers (6204.21.00.10), trousers, breeches, and shorts (6204.21.00.40), and blouses and shirts (6204.21.00.60). This ensures that only skirt-type garments of the specified material are classified here.

As a leaf node, this classification does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification under 6204.21.00.30 is on confirming that the garment is indeed a skirt or divided skirt, intended for women or girls, and predominantly composed of wool or fine animal hair, adhering to the definitions and inclusions outlined in Section XI of the HTS.
