Classification of boys' knit jacket under HS 6103.39

HS code 6103.39 applies to boys' jackets and blazers that are knitted or crocheted and manufactured from textile materials other than wool, fine animal hair, cotton, or synthetic fibers. The classification process involves identifying the primary method of fabric productionโ€”in this case, knittingโ€”which places the item in Chapter 61. Furthermore, the material composition is the deciding factor for the subheading. Since the jacket is not made of the most common industrial fibers like cotton (6103.32) or polyester (6103.33), it falls into the residual category for "other textile materials." This includes luxury fibers like silk or natural plant fibers like linen and hemp. The garment must be designed to cover the upper body and typically features a full front opening without a hood, distinguishing it from parkas or wind-cheaters. The structure of the jacket, even if knitted, must resemble a blazer or suit jacket to remain within this heading. This classification is vital for ensuring correct duty rates are applied to specialty apparel imports.

Codes often confused with 6103.39

Common mistake. This code is often confused with 6103.31 (wool), 6103.32 (cotton), or 6103.33 (synthetic fibers). Importers must ensure the fiber content does not contain more than the allowable percentage of these fibers. Furthermore, it is often confused with 6110.90, which covers sweaters and cardigans. The distinction lies in the cut and intended use; a jacket (6103.39) is generally more structured and intended as an outer layer of a suit or formal outfit, whereas a cardigan is considered casual knitwear.

How these figures are built

109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
