6206.20.30 - Other

This HTS category, 6206.20.30, encompasses women's and girls' blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses that are not knitted or crocheted and are made from wool or fine animal hair. Crucially, this classification applies to garments within this material composition that do not fall under more specific descriptions, such as those with a significant silk content. The "Other" designation indicates that this code serves as a residual category for wool or fine animal hair garments not otherwise specified.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 6206.20.20, which specifically covers blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses of wool or fine animal hair containing 30 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. Therefore, 6206.20.30 applies to wool or fine animal hair garments where the silk content, if any, is less than 30 percent by weight, or where silk is not a component at all. The primary differentiator remains the precise material composition, particularly the presence and proportion of silk.

Further subdivision exists within this category, leading to 6206.20.30.10 for women's garments and 6206.20.30.20 for girls' garments. This split allows for a more granular classification based on the intended wearer, facilitating statistical tracking and potential duty rate differentials, although both subcategories remain under the umbrella of "Other" wool or fine animal hair blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses not containing 30 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste.
