6217.90.90.80 - Of wool or fine animal hair (459) 🖩

This HTS subcategory, 6217.90.90.80, specifically classifies parts of garments or clothing accessories that are not knitted or crocheted, and are made of wool or fine animal hair. These parts are intended for use in the construction or repair of apparel and clothing accessories falling under Chapter 62, excluding those specifically covered by heading 6212. Examples of items that would fall under this classification include, but are not limited to, collars, cuffs, pockets, or facings made from wool or fine animal hair, intended to be attached to or incorporated into garments or accessories.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. HTS code 6217.90.90.75 covers similar parts made of cotton, while 6217.90.90.85 applies to those fabricated from man-made fibers. The distinguishing factor here is the material composition: wool or fine animal hair. The residual category, 6217.90.90.95, serves as a catch-all for parts made from other materials not specified in the preceding subcategories.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level is determined by the specific material of the garment part or accessory, provided it is not knitted or crocheted and falls within the general scope of "other made up clothing accessories; parts of garments or of clothing accessories, other than those of heading 6212." Therefore, precise identification of the fiber content (wool or fine animal hair) is paramount for correct classification.
