HS Code 6114.30 – Garments; of man-made fibres, knitted or crocheted, n.e.c. in chapter 61
HS code 6114.30 is the 6-digit subheading for garments, of man-made fibres, knitted or crocheted, n.e.c. in chapter 61. It is used for polyester knit dresses, nylon knit shorts, rayon knit cardigans, acrylic knit vests and spandex blend knit skirts.
What HS 6114.30 covers
This HS code covers a diverse range of knitted or crocheted garments made from man-made fibers, which are not specifically enumerated under other headings in Chapter 61. This category is crucial in global trade due to the prevalence and versatility of synthetic and artificial fibers like polyester, nylon, rayon, and acrylic in modern apparel. These materials offer benefits such as durability, wrinkle resistance, stretch, and often lower production costs compared to natural fibers. Major importers are typically large consumer markets in North America and Europe, where demand for affordable and performance-oriented clothing is high. Exporting nations are often those with advanced textile manufacturing infrastructure and competitive labor, including China, Vietnam, Turkey, and Indonesia. Understanding the specific type of man-made fiber (e.g., synthetic vs. artificial) and the garment's construction is vital for accurate classification, as the "n.e.c." designation implies it's a residual category for items not fitting more precise descriptions.

Codes often confused with 6114.30
Common mistake. This code is often confused with more specific headings like 6103 or 6104 if the garment is a suit, dress, or similar item, or with 6106 (blouses, shirts, shirt-blouses, knitted or crocheted) if it fits that description. It's also important to distinguish from 6211 for non-knitted garments of man-made fibers.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
