6209.90.05.00 - Of wool or fine animal hair (439) 🖩

This HTS category, 6209.90.05.00, specifically classifies articles of apparel and clothing accessories for babies that are made from wool or fine animal hair. These items are distinct from those made of artificial fibers or silk, as wool and fine animal hair possess unique natural properties and textures that necessitate separate classification for trade purposes.

This category is a leaf node, meaning it does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, classification at this level relies on the explicit presence of wool or fine animal hair as the primary textile material in the garment or accessory. Examples include baby sweaters, cardigans, hats, mittens, and blankets where wool or materials like cashmere, angora, or mohair constitute the predominant fiber content. It is crucial to ensure that the material composition aligns precisely with the definition of wool or fine animal hair as per HTS Chapter 62 guidelines to avoid misclassification.
