HS code 6210.20 is the 6-digit subheading for garments, overcoats, raincoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets) and similar articles, men's or boys', of the fabrics of heading no. 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906 or 5907 (not knitted or crocheted). It is used for men's waterproof raincoats (coated fabric), boys' ski jackets (non-woven insulated), men's car coats (rubberized textile), boys' anoraks (plastic-coated fabric) and men's protective capes (felt).

What HS 6210.20 covers

This specific HS code covers men's or boys' overcoats, raincoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), and similar articles, which are not knitted or crocheted, and are made from very specific technical fabrics. These fabrics fall under headings 5602 (felt), 5603 (nonwovens), 5903 (textile fabrics impregnated, coated, covered with plastics), 5906 (rubberized textile fabrics), or 5907 (other impregnated, coated, covered textile fabrics). This category is crucial for trade in high-performance outerwear, protective gear, and specialized functional clothing. Importers are often markets with demand for durable, weather-resistant, or industrial-grade garments, such as the US, Canada, and European nations. Exporters are typically countries with advanced textile technology and garment manufacturing, like China, Vietnam, and certain European producers. The precise identification of the fabric's composition and treatment is paramount for correct classification.

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).
