6212.10.90.40 - Other (859)

This HTS subheading, 6212.10.90.40, covers "Other" brassieres. Within the broader category of brassieres (6212.10), this specific classification is for those not accounted for by the preceding subheadings. It is important to note that this category serves as a residual classification for brassieres.

To accurately classify a brassiere under this subheading, it must not be exclusively composed of cotton or man-made fibers, as those are provided for under 6212.10.90.10 and 6212.10.90.20, respectively. Therefore, this subheading would typically encompass brassieres made from other textile materials, such as silk, wool, or blends where neither cotton nor man-made fibers are the predominant component according to Chapter 62 rules of interpretation.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions under 6212.10.90.40. Classification within this category relies on the precise material composition and the absence of specific material declarations in the preceding sibling categories. When classifying, always refer to the material composition of the garment to determine if it falls into the cotton, man-made fiber, or this residual "Other" category.
