Overview
This HTS classification, 9915.50.01, pertains to specific types of cotton hosiery and footwear that are manufactured without applied soles. The goods covered are primarily socks, stockings, and similar knitted or crocheted items. Crucially, this classification is subject to preferential treatment and specific entry requirements, referencing potential eligibility under subheadings 6115.95.60 or 6115.95.90, and potentially qualifying for entry under temporary trade provisions like heading 9802.00.80 or 9822.05.10.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings within Chapter 99 involves understanding its focus on temporary legislation and trade agreements. While siblings at this level might cover a broad range of temporary measures or import restrictions, 9915.50.01 zeroes in on a precise set of cotton hosiery and footwear products originating from Honduras. This specificity is further reinforced by the time-bound nature of its application, valid only for entries made between July 1, 2008, and December 31, 2008.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is therefore precise and does not branch into more granular distinctions. Its purpose is to facilitate the accurate identification and administration of specific trade provisions related to certain Honduran-origin cotton hosiery and footwear during a defined period, allowing for proper duty assessment and compliance with temporary legislative frameworks.
