Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 620459 when importing or exporting women's or girls' skirts made from textile materials that are not knitted or crocheted. For example, a shipment of cotton A-line skirts would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers skirts and divided skirts crafted from various textile materials, excluding those made from knitted or crocheted fabrics. If you're dealing with a shipment of polyester blend skirts, this is the correct classification.

In contrast, HS-6 620460 applies to skirts made from other materials, such as leather or synthetic blends, which are also not knitted or crocheted. Understanding these distinctions can help avoid misclassification and potential customs issues.

When classifying, consider the fabric type and construction. If you have skirts made from silk or linen, they would still be classified under this HS-6 as long as they are not knitted or crocheted.
