Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 620799 when importing or exporting men's or boys' singlets, vests, or bathrobes made from textile materials other than cotton. For example, if you're shipping a batch of polyester bathrobes to a retailer, this is the correct code.
This HS-6 line specifically covers singlets and other vests, as well as bathrobes and dressing gowns that are not made from cotton. If you have similar articles made from cotton, you would need to use HS-6 6208XX instead.
When considering items under this heading, note that HS-6 620799 is distinct from HS-6 6207XX, which includes cotton-based garments. Understanding the material composition is key to proper classification.
If you're dealing with men's or boys' night-shirts or pyjamas made from non-cotton textiles, those would fall under a different HS-6 line, emphasizing the importance of material in classification.
