6217.90.90.35 - Of man-made fibers (635) 🖩

This HTS category, 6217.90.90.35, specifically covers parts of garments and clothing accessories that are made up but are not knitted or crocheted, and are composed of man-made fibers. These parts are distinct from complete articles of apparel or clothing accessories and are intended for use in the construction or repair of items falling under Chapter 62. Examples include cuffs, collars, pocket flaps, or decorative elements made from man-made fabrics, designed to be attached to garments such as coats or jackets.

This classification differentiates itself from its siblings based on the primary material content. Specifically, 6217.90.90.35 applies exclusively to parts manufactured from man-made fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or rayon. This contrasts with 6217.90.90.25, which is for parts of cotton, and 6217.90.90.30, designated for parts made of wool or fine animal hair. The "Other" sibling category, 6217.90.90.45, would encompass parts made from other textile materials not specified in the preceding sibling categories.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subdivisions. Therefore, precise identification of the constituent material as man-made fiber is the primary criterion for classification under this code. Exporters and importers must carefully verify the fiber content of the garment part to ensure accurate reporting and compliance with customs regulations.
