6214.90.00.10 - Of cotton (359)

This HTS classification, 6214.90.00.10, specifically designates shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils, and similar articles that are not knitted or crocheted and are exclusively made of cotton. The "(359)" designation refers to a specific explanatory note or statistical suffix within the HTS system, providing further detail or statistical tracking for this particular subcategory. This allows for precise identification of these textile accessories when they are composed entirely of cotton fibers.

The primary distinction for this category lies in its material composition. It stands apart from its sibling category, 6214.90.00.90, which covers "Other" textile materials for the same types of articles. Therefore, any item classified under 6214.90.00.10 must definitively be constructed from cotton, whereas the sibling category would encompass articles made from silk, wool, synthetic fibers, or blends where cotton is not the sole component.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subdivisions. The classification is definitive at this level, meaning that once an article meets the criteria of being a shawl, scarf, muffler, mantilla, veil, or similar, and is not knitted or crocheted, its classification hinges solely on whether it is made entirely of cotton or composed of other textile materials. This level of detail ensures that the customs treatment is applied consistently based on the fundamental material of these clothing accessories.
