6505.00.20.30 - For babies (239)

This HTS code, 6505.00.20.30, specifically classifies headwear for babies that is made from cotton, flax, or a combination of both, and is not knitted. The "For babies (239)" designation within the description highlights that the primary defining characteristic for inclusion under this code is the intended use for infants. These items are constructed from textile fabrics and are not formed by knitting, distinguishing them from knitted baby headwear.

Within the broader category of "Other headwear of cotton, flax or both, not knitted," this subcategory serves to isolate baby-specific items. It differentiates itself from its sibling category, 6505.00.20.60 "Other," which would encompass non-knitted cotton or flax headwear for other age groups or general use.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions under this specific code. Classification under 6505.00.20.30 is final for eligible baby headwear meeting the material and construction criteria. Importers should ensure that the size, design, and specific purpose of the headwear clearly indicate its intended use for infants to warrant classification here.
