9820.61.30 - Apparel articles described in U.S. note 6(e) to this subchapter imported directly from Haiti or the Dominican Republic during an applicable 1-year period specified in U.S. note 6(b)(ii) to this subchapter, subject to the limitations provided in such U.S. note 6(g)(i) to this subchapter

This HTS classification, 9820.61.30, pertains to specific apparel articles that meet particular import conditions. To qualify under this provision, the apparel must be directly imported from Haiti or the Dominican Republic within an established 1-year period, as outlined in U.S. note 6(b)(ii) to this subchapter. Crucially, these imports are also subject to quantitative limitations detailed in U.S. note 6(g)(i) of the same subchapter, ensuring compliance with trade agreements and specific economic policies.

This category is distinct from the general apparel classifications found in Chapters 61-63 of the HTSUS. Its uniqueness lies not in the inherent nature of the apparel itself, but rather in its origin and the specific legislative framework governing its entry into the United States. Unlike standard tariff headings, this provision is a temporary special classification measure designed to promote trade with particular countries under defined circumstances.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 9820.61.30. Classification is finalized at this level, contingent upon the importer's ability to demonstrate that the imported apparel articles meet all the criteria stipulated in U.S. note 6, including the origin, time period, and quantity limitations. Failure to meet any of these specific requirements would necessitate classification under a different, more general HTS heading.
