6205.30.20.80 - Other (640) 🖩

This classification, HTS Code 6205.30.20.80, pertains to men's or boys' shirts constructed from man-made fibers that do not fall into any more specific categories within the "Other" subheadings of this division. It represents a residual classification for shirts that meet the general criteria of being men's or boys' shirts made of man-made fibers but lack the particular characteristics or intended use that would place them in other designated subcategories. The term "Other" at this level signifies that these shirts are distinct from those classified under more specific provisions, such as those for specific types of man-made fiber shirts or those categorized by their use as parts of other garments.

To differentiate this category from its sibling, 6205.30.20.75, it is important to note that the sibling specifically covers shirts imported as parts of playsuits. Therefore, HTS 6205.30.20.80 encompasses all other men's or boys' shirts of man-made fibers not designed or imported as components of playsuits. This distinction highlights the importance of both the physical nature of the garment and its intended end-use or form of importation in determining the correct tariff classification.

As a leaf node in the HTS classification tree, this category has no further subcategories. Consequently, classification into HTS 6205.30.20.80 is final for qualifying merchandise. Importers and customs professionals should carefully review the descriptive notes and legal texts associated with Chapter 62 and heading 6205 to ensure that the shirts in question do not meet the criteria for any more specific subheading, thereby confirming that this "Other" classification is indeed the most appropriate.
