Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 611522 when importing or exporting panty hose and tights made from synthetic fibers, specifically those that measure 67 decitex or more. For example, if you're shipping a batch of nylon tights for retail, this is the correct code to use.
This code applies to panty hose and tights that are not classified as graduated compression hosiery. If your shipment includes compression tights designed for medical purposes, you would need to look at a different classification under this heading.
The 611522 line narrows down to products specifically made from synthetic fibers, such as nylon or polyester, and excludes those made from natural fibers like cotton or wool. If you have tights made from cotton blends, you would need to consider other HS codes.
When classifying products, it's essential to note the yarn measurement. If the tights in your shipment measure under 67 decitex, they would not fall under this HS-6 and would require a different classification.
