Overview
Heading 6217 encompasses a diverse range of "other made up" clothing accessories that are not specifically covered by earlier headings within Chapter 62, and also includes parts for garments or clothing accessories that are not classified under heading 6212. This heading is specifically for articles that are sewn, assembled, or otherwise constructed from textile materials, but are not knitted or crocheted. It serves as a residual category for textile accessories and garment parts that do not fit into more specific classifications within Section XI.
Unlike sibling categories that focus on distinct product groups such as live animals (Chapter 01), heading 6217 is firmly rooted in finished or semi-finished textile articles. Its scope is defined by its exclusion from more specific apparel headings and its inclusion of items that are not knitted or crocheted. This means that while other headings might classify finished garments like shirts or trousers, or specific types of knitted accessories, 6217 captures those textile accessories and parts that fall outside these more granular definitions.
The subcategories within 6217 further delineate its coverage. Heading 6217.10 specifically addresses "Accessories," which would include items like textile belts, sashes, gloves (not knitted), and other decorative or functional textile additions to clothing. Conversely, 6217.90 is reserved for "Parts" of garments or clothing accessories, such as collars, cuffs, or waistbands that are not integral to a specific finished garment but can be used in the construction or repair of various textile items. The residual "I. OTHER MADE UP TEXTILE ARTICLES" provides a broader catch-all for made-up textile items not otherwise specified, reinforcing its role as a concluding category for this type of goods.
