9915.62.15 - Apparel goods of Costa Rica made from wool fabric (except fabric of carded wool, or made from wool yarn having an average fiber diameter of not more than 18.5 microns), the foregoing described in U.S. note 16(d) to this subchapter and imported in aggregate annual quantities not to exceed the quantities set forth in U.S. note 16(c) to this subchapter

This HTS category, 9915.62.15, designates specific apparel goods originating from Costa Rica. To qualify for this classification, the apparel must be manufactured from wool fabric. Crucially, this fabric cannot be made from carded wool, nor can it be produced from wool yarn with an average fiber diameter exceeding 18.5 microns. The classification further references specific U.S. notes (16(d) and 16(c)) which detail particular product descriptions and aggregate annual quantity limitations, respectively. These notes are integral to determining eligibility and must be consulted for precise application.

As a category within Section XXII (Special Classification Provisions), this HTS code differs significantly from the product-specific classifications found in earlier chapters of the HTSUS (e.g., Chapters 01-98). While sibling categories in other sections might describe live animals or raw materials, 9915.62.15 pertains to finished textile products subject to special trade provisions. Its unique focus is on apparel from a particular country of origin, with specific material and quality constraints, under a temporary legislation framework, distinguishing it from broader apparel classifications or general trade agreement provisions.

Since 9915.62.15 is a leaf node within the HTS structure, it does not possess further subcategories. The classification is definitive at this level, requiring adherence to all stated conditions, including origin, material specifications, and the quantitative limits outlined in the referenced U.S. notes. Importers must ensure that the goods precisely meet all criteria to benefit from this specific tariff provision.
