6206Blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses; women's or girls' (not knitted or crocheted)

Chapter 62: Articles of apparel, not knitted

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6206 when importing women's or girls' blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses that are not knitted or crocheted. For example, if you're shipping a shipment of cotton blouses from India, this is the classification you need.

To choose the correct HS-6 code under HS-6206, consider the material of the garment. For instance, if the blouses are made from silk, you would classify them under 620610. However, if they are made from cotton, you should use 620630 instead.

The distinction between 620620 and 620640 is based on the fabric type. If your shipment consists of blouses made from wool, select 620620. For those made from synthetic fibers, 620640 is the appropriate code.

If your product doesn't fit neatly into the specified categories, such as being made from a blend of materials not covered by the other codes, consider 620690 for textile materials not elsewhere classified.
