6703.00.60.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS subheading, 6703.00.60.00, specifically covers "Other" prepared human hair, wool, or other animal hair, or other textile materials that have been processed and prepared for use in the manufacture of wigs, false hair, or similar articles. This category is intended for materials that do not fit into more specific classifications within heading 6703. The "Other" designation signifies that it acts as a residual category for prepared hair and animal hair that has undergone significant processing, such as dressing, thinning, bleaching, or other working that renders it suitable for wig-making or similar applications.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 6703.00.30.00, is crucial. The sibling category, "Human hair," specifically enumerates raw or minimally processed human hair. This current subheading, 6703.00.60.00, encompasses *prepared* hair and wool or other animal hair, meaning it has undergone transformative processes to make it ready for wig construction or related uses. Therefore, while the sibling might cover basic bundles of human hair, this category addresses those same materials after they have been treated, colored, or otherwise manipulated for specific end-uses in the wig and hair goods industry.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS system, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 6703.00.60.00 is determined by the material's origin (human hair, wool, or other animal hair), its preparation state (dressed, thinned, bleached, or otherwise worked), and its intended use in the creation of wigs, toupees, hairpieces, or similar articles. Importers and exporters should carefully review the specific processing applied to the materials to ensure correct classification under this residual "Other" subheading.
