6201 — Overcoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), wind-cheaters, wind-jackets and similar articles, men's or boys', other than those of heading no. 6203 (not knitted or crocheted)
Chapter 62: Articles of apparel, not knitted
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6201 when importing men's or boys' overcoats, such as a wool car-coat or a cotton anorak. This heading covers various styles like capes and wind-jackets, provided they are not knitted or crocheted.
To choose the correct HS-6 code, consider the material of the garment. For example, if you're importing a raincoat made of fine animal hair, use HS-620120. If it’s made of cotton, opt for HS-620130 instead.
When dealing with synthetic materials, select HS-620140 for man-made fibre garments. If the coat is made from other textile materials not specified in the previous categories, then HS-620190 is your code.
Be mindful that all these articles must be classified under HS-6201 as they are specifically for men's or boys' outerwear and exclude those covered by heading 6203.
