6204.43.30 - Containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair

This HTS category encompasses women's or girls' dresses that are not knitted or crocheted and are primarily composed of synthetic fibers. To fall under this classification, the dress must contain 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair, in addition to synthetic fibers. This specific material composition is the defining characteristic for items within this subcategory, distinguishing them from other dresses made from different primary materials.

Within the broader category of "Dresses of synthetic fibers," this code differentiates itself from its sibling, 6204.43.20, which specifically covers dresses containing 30 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. While both fall under synthetic fiber compositions, the presence and proportion of wool or fine animal hair in this classification is the key differentiator. The sibling category 6204.43.40, "Other," would apply to synthetic fiber dresses that do not meet the material requirements of either 6204.43.30 or 6204.43.20.

The subcategories for 6204.43.30 are further divided based on the intended wearer: "Women's" (6204.43.30.10) and "Girls'" (6204.43.30.20). This distinction allows for more precise tariff application based on the sizing and design characteristics typically associated with women's versus girls' apparel.
