Overview

This HTS category, 6215.10.00.40, specifically classifies neckties, bow ties, and cravats where the outer shell is predominantly composed of silk or silk waste, accounting for 70 percent or more by weight. This classification focuses on the primary textile component of the accessory, emphasizing a high silk content in its exterior construction. Such items are designed for decorative neckwear and are generally considered formal or semi-formal attire accessories.

This classification distinguishes itself from its sibling category, 6215.10.00.90 ("Other"), which would encompass neckties, bow ties, and cravats of silk or silk waste that do not meet the 70 percent or more silk content requirement for the outer shell. It also falls under the broader heading of silk neckwear but is specifically delineated by the substantial proportion of silk in its outer fabric.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code is solely on the precise percentage of silk or silk waste in the outer shell, ensuring that items exceeding the 70 percent threshold are accurately categorized here. This detailed breakdown is crucial for determining applicable duties and trade regulations.
