Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.13.72, specifically covers specialized pocket pouches designed for use with fishing waders. These pouches are characterized by an outer shell made of woven textile fabric laminated to an inner layer of knitted fabric. Key functional features include a zippered cargo pocket and additional compartments engineered for organizing fishing accessories such as tippets and leaders. The presence of dual-entry zippers is a distinguishing characteristic, indicating their integration into a larger system, namely fishing waders, as provided for under subheading 6217.90.90.
As a temporary legislation entry within Chapter 99, this code signifies a specific, potentially time-limited, tariff treatment or restriction. Unlike the broad categories of finished articles found in Chapters 1-97, Chapter 99 codes are reserved for special provisions, trade agreement modifications, or import restrictions. Therefore, this category stands apart from standard product classifications which would address fishing apparel or general textile accessories without this specific functional integration and temporary classification status.
Given that this is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories for this specific classification. Classification is determined directly by the detailed description provided. Importers must ensure that the imported goods precisely match all the described physical characteristics, functional design elements, and intended use as detailed in the HTS code's description to correctly apply this classification.
