Chapter 62: Articles of apparel, not knitted
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 621520 when importing or exporting ties, bow ties, and cravats made from man-made fibers. For example, if you're shipping a box of polyester ties to a retailer, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers non-knitted or crocheted items, distinguishing it from HS-6 621590, which includes ties made from other materials or those that may be knitted. Understanding this difference is crucial for accurate classification.
The 621520 line falls under the broader category of apparel and clothing accessories, focusing on formal neckwear crafted from synthetic materials. This includes items like silk-like polyester ties and cravats that are not constructed from natural fibers.
When classifying your products, consider the material and construction. If your ties are made from cotton or wool, you would need to look at different HS codes, as those would not fall under this specific line.
