Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 621010 when importing or exporting garments made of felt or non-woven fabrics that are not knitted or crocheted. For example, a shipment of non-woven fabric jackets would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers garments made from materials like felt or non-woven textiles, distinguishing them from other fabric types. For instance, HS-6 621020 covers garments made of other types of textiles, such as woven fabrics.
When classifying garments, consider the fabric type. Non-woven garments, like felt coats or non-woven vests, are classified under 621010, whereas knitted items would not qualify under this HS-6.
If you're dealing with mixed fabric garments, ensure that the primary fabric is felt or non-woven to use this code. For example, a felt-lined jacket with a woven outer layer would still be classified here if the felt is predominant.
