Classification of girls' knit pajamas under HS 6108.39
Girls' knit pajamas are classified under HS code 6108.39. This classification falls under Chapter 61 (knitted or crocheted apparel) and Heading 6108, which includes nightdresses and pajamas for women or girls. The subheading 6108.39 is specifically for those made of textile materials other than cotton or man-made fibers. Pajamas are defined as garments consisting of two pieces (an upper part and a lower part) designed exclusively or mainly for sleeping. To be classified here, the garment must be knitted. If the pajamas are made of silk, wool, or other specialty fibers, they fall into this 'other' category. Customs authorities look for features that indicate the garment is intended for nightwear, such as loose fit, soft texture, and lack of features typically found on daywear (like heavy zippers or belt loops). The classification is determined by the primary fiber by weight, following the rules set out in the Section XI notes of the Harmonized System.

Codes often confused with 6108.39
Common mistake. Pajamas are often misclassified under 6108.31 (cotton) or 6108.32 (man-made fibers) due to the prevalence of these materials in the market. Another common error is classifying loungewear or 'athleisure' as pajamas under 6108.39; if the garment is not clearly intended for sleep, it may be classified as a tracksuit under 6112 or a separate top/bottom under 6110 or 6104. Woven pajamas must be classified under heading 6208.

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).
