Chapter 61: Articles of apparel, knitted

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 611011 when importing or exporting knitted jerseys, pullovers, cardigans, or waistcoats made from wool or fine animal hair. For example, a shipment of 100 wool pullovers from Italy would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers garments that are knitted or crocheted from wool or fine animal hair, distinguishing them from similar articles made from synthetic fibers or cotton, which would use different HS codes like 611012 for cotton garments.

If you're dealing with knitted garments made from other materials, such as polyester or acrylic, you should look at HS-6 codes like 611019, which encompasses similar articles made from other textile materials.

When classifying your products, consider the fiber content and the knitting technique, as these factors determine the correct HS code. For instance, a knitted cardigan made from cashmere would also be classified under 611011.
