6204.59.20 - Containing 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair

This HTS category, 6204.59.20, specifically classifies skirts and divided skirts that are not knitted or crocheted, are made from textile materials other than cotton, man-made fibers, or silk, and are composed of 36 percent or more by weight of wool or fine animal hair. This designation ensures accurate tariff application for garments where wool or fine animal hair is a significant component, impacting their classification beyond general "other textile materials."

The distinction of this category lies in its precise material composition. Sibling categories at this level, such as 6204.59.30, would cover skirts made of other textile materials not meeting the wool/fine animal hair percentage threshold. Therefore, the key differentiator for 6204.59.20 is the substantial presence of wool or fine animal hair, dictating its specific tariff treatment.

Further subdivisions exist to differentiate between skirts intended for women and those for girls. Category 6204.59.20.10 pertains to women's skirts meeting these material criteria, while 6204.59.20.20 applies to girls' skirts. This granular breakdown allows for more precise customs declarations and duty assessments based on the intended wearer.
