6214.30.00.00 - Of synthetic fibers (659) 🖩

This HTS category, 6214.30.00.00, specifically covers shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils, and similar articles that are manufactured from synthetic fibers. These are items typically worn for warmth, adornment, or religious/cultural purposes. The key defining characteristic for classification under this heading is the primary textile material from which the article is constructed, which must be synthetic.

This classification distinguishes itself from its siblings based on material composition. For instance, articles made of silk or silk waste fall under 6214.10, while those composed of wool or fine animal hair are classified under 6214.20.00.00. Similarly, items made from artificial fibers, such as rayon or modal, are distinctively found in 6214.40.00.00. Articles made from any other textile materials not covered by the preceding categories would be classified under 6214.90.00.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges solely on the identification of the article as a shawl, scarf, etc., and its composition being solely or predominantly of synthetic fibers. Examples of synthetic fibers include polyester, nylon, acrylic, and spandex, which are commonly used to produce a wide range of these accessories.
