Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 620690 when importing or exporting women's or girls' blouses and shirts made from textile materials that are not knitted or crocheted. For example, a shipment of cotton blouses designed for summer wear falls under this code.
This code specifically covers blouses and shirts made from various textile materials that do not fall into other specific categories. Unlike HS-6 620620, which includes blouses made from silk, 620690 encompasses a broader range of fabrics such as cotton, polyester, or blends.
When classifying garments, it's essential to note that 620690 applies to items that are not knitted or crocheted. If you have a shipment of women's shirts made from woven fabric, this is the correct code. In contrast, knitted items would use a different classification.
If you're unsure about the material or style of your apparel, consider the specific textile used. For instance, polyester blouses or rayon shirts for girls also fit under this HS-6 line, making it versatile for various textile imports.
