6217.90.10.10 - Of blouses and shirts (741)

This HTS category, 6217.90.10.10, specifically designates parts of garments classified under heading 6217 that are intended for use in the construction of blouses and shirts. These parts, which are not knitted or crocheted, must contain 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste to fall within this specific subcategory. Examples of such parts could include collars, cuffs, or plackets made from silk intended to be assembled into silk blouses or shirts.

This classification is distinct from its siblings, which cover parts for other garment types. For instance, 6217.90.10.20 pertains to parts for coats and jackets, while 6217.90.10.30 covers parts for trousers and breeches. The "Other" category (6217.90.10.60) is for parts that do not fit the specific definitions of blouses/shirts, coats/jackets, or trousers/breeches, provided they meet the general criteria of heading 6217 and the silk content requirement.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is finalized at this level based on the specific garment type (blouses and shirts) and the predominant material content (70% or more silk or silk waste). Therefore, importers must carefully verify both the intended end-use of the garment part and its material composition to ensure accurate classification.
