6204.29.40.38 - Subject to man-made fiber restraints (648)

This HTS classification, 6204.29.40.38, specifically covers trousers, breeches, and shorts for women or girls that are made from textile materials other than cotton or wool, and are subject to man-made fiber restraints. This designation indicates that the articles are predominantly constructed from synthetic or artificial fibers. The "man-made fiber restraints" designation is crucial for import and export purposes, as it signifies potential quantitative limits or specific documentation requirements that must be met.

In contrast to its sibling categories, 6204.29.40.34 pertains to similar garments subject to cotton restraints, while 6204.29.40.36 covers those subject to wool restraints. Therefore, the primary distinguishing factor for this category is the material composition, specifically the prevalence of man-made fibers, which triggers a different set of control measures.

As this classification node is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this specific category. Classification at this level requires careful examination of the garment's material composition to confirm the presence of man-made fibers and to ensure compliance with any applicable man-made fiber restraint agreements or quotas. Garments meeting these criteria, such as women's synthetic shorts or girls' polyester trousers, would be classified under this heading.
