6209.90.10.00 - Blouses and shirts, except those imported as parts of sets (239) 🖩

This HTS classification specifically covers blouses and shirts intended for babies. The key characteristic is their design for infants and young children, distinct from adult apparel. These garments must be constructed from "other textile materials," meaning they are not knitted or crocheted, and are made from artificial fibers. The classification excludes blouses and shirts that are imported as part of a coordinated set of clothing for babies.

While at the same level, this category is distinct from other "Of artificial fibers" within the "Babies' garments and clothing accessories" section. For instance, HTS code 6209.90.20.00 covers trousers, breeches, and shorts made from similar materials and intended for babies, differentiating itself by garment type. HTS code 6209.90.30 encompasses all other baby garments and clothing accessories made of artificial fibers that do not fall into the specific categories of blouses, shirts, or trousers.

As a leaf node, this classification, 6209.90.10.00, does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for importers and exporters is on accurately identifying blouses and shirts made from artificial fibers intended for babies, ensuring they are not part of a set, and confirming they meet the criteria of being "of other textile materials" (non-knitted/crocheted). Classification hinges on the garment's function, target wearer (infant/baby), material composition, and its status as an individual item rather than a component of a set.
