Chapter 62: Articles of apparel, not knitted
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 621420 when importing or exporting shawls, scarves, or mufflers made of wool or fine animal hair. For instance, a shipment of cashmere shawls would fall under this code.
This code specifically applies to non-knitted or non-crocheted items, distinguishing it from HS-6 621430, which covers similar products made from synthetic fibers. Knowing the material is key to proper classification.
When classifying items, consider the fabric type. Shawls made from cotton or polyester would not qualify for HS-6 621420 but would instead be classified under different codes for textiles.
Ensure that your products are accurately described on invoices. For example, '100% merino wool scarf' would fit under this HS code, while a 'knitted wool scarf' would not.
