HS Code for Boys' knit bathrobe

HS code 610799 is the specific classification for boys' knitted bathrobes and dressing gowns made from textile materials other than cotton or man-made fibers. This includes garments made from silk, wool, or other specialty natural fibers that have been knitted or crocheted. Chapter 61 of the Harmonized System covers all apparel that is knitted, distinguishing it from the woven garments in Chapter 62. Bathrobes are characterized by their loose-fitting nature and are intended to be worn over undergarments or directly on the skin in a domestic setting. The classification 610799 acts as a residual category for materials that do not fall under the more common 6107.91 (cotton) or 6107.99 (which sometimes includes man-made fibers depending on the specific national tariff schedule, though 6107.99 is generally \"other\"). It is vital to ensure the fiber content is accurately identified, as even a small percentage of a dominant fiber can shift the classification. These garments typically feature a wrap-around front, a belt, and may include a hood or pockets. They are designed for comfort and lounging rather than for outdoor wear or formal occasions. The \"knitted\" requirement means the fabric must be produced by interlocking loops of yarn, which provides stretch and softness compared to woven fabrics.

Common Misclassification

This code is often confused with 610791 (cotton bathrobes) or 620799 (woven bathrobes). The most critical distinction is the method of fabric construction (knitted vs. woven). Additionally, if the garment is made of synthetic fibers like polyester, it should be classified under 610799 but specifically identified as man-made if the tariff schedule provides a sub-split.
