HS code 6206.90 is the 6-digit subheading for blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses, women's or girls', of textile materials n.e.c. in heading no. 6206 (not knitted or crocheted). It is used for linen blouse, ramie shirt, hemp blend tunic, linen-cotton blend shirt and jute blend top.
What HS 6206.90 covers
This HS code serves as a 'basket' category for women's or girls' blouses, shirts, and shirt-blouses made from textile materials not specifically enumerated in other 6206 subheadings, and which are not knitted or crocheted. This includes garments made from linen, ramie, hemp, jute, or blends where no single fiber predominates (e.g., linen-viscose blends, silk-cotton blends). Trade in these items often caters to niche markets, offering unique textures, natural properties, or specific aesthetic appeals not found in mainstream cotton or synthetic options. Exporters and importers can vary widely, depending on the specific fiber and its regional availability or demand. Key considerations involve accurate fiber identification for customs purposes, as well as understanding the specific care instructions and market appeal of these diverse textile materials.

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).
