6210.10.90.40 - Other (659)

This category, HTS 6210.10.90.40, encompasses a broad range of made-up textile articles that are not knitted or crocheted. Specifically, it covers garments and other textile articles that are constructed from nonwovens or other impregnated, coated, or laminated fabrics falling under HTS headings 5602 or 5603. These materials are characterized by their unique construction, often involving bonded fibers or webs, and may have undergone treatments that impart specific properties such as water resistance, breathability, or flame retardancy. The "Other" designation signifies that this subcategory captures items not otherwise specifically enumerated within its sibling categories.

Unlike its sibling category, 6210.10.90.10, which is reserved for overalls and coveralls, this category 6210.10.90.40 is intended for all other garments and textile articles that meet the fabric criteria but do not fit the specific definition of overalls or coveralls. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff classification, ensuring that distinct types of apparel and accessories are correctly identified. The scope here is therefore defined by exclusion from more specific classifications within this sub-heading.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification within 6210.10.90.40 relies on ensuring that the imported goods meet the material requirements of heading 5602 or 5603 and are not specifically classified under any other heading or subheading within Chapter 62. Examples of items that might fall under this classification include certain types of protective clothing not specifically defined as overalls, reusable shopping bags, or other finished textile articles made from these specialized nonwoven or treated fabrics.
