Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 610620 when importing or exporting women's or girls' blouses made from man-made fibers, such as polyester or nylon. For example, a shipment of knitted polyester blouses intended for retail sale falls under this code.
This code specifically addresses blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses that are knitted or crocheted, distinguishing them from other garments like t-shirts or woven shirts, which would fall under different HS codes. For instance, HS-6 610610 covers cotton blouses, while HS-6 610590 includes other materials.
When classifying your products, consider the fiber content and construction method. The focus here is on blouses made from synthetic fibers, which are often lighter and more durable than natural fibers. This can affect both classification and duty rates.
If you're unsure whether your product qualifies under this code, check the fiber composition and whether it is knitted or crocheted. Proper classification is crucial to avoid delays or penalties during customs clearance.
