HS Code for Men's cotton pajamas

Classification 6107.21 applies to men's or boys' nightshirts and pajamas made of cotton, knitted or crocheted. Pajamas are defined as sets of garments consisting of two pieces: a lightweight garment for the upper body and a pair of trousers or shorts for the lower body, intended specifically for sleeping. The fabric must be knitted, providing the comfort and stretch associated with sleepwear. It is essential that these garments are clearly identifiable as nightwear by their cut, fabric, or presence of features like a fly-less front or specific patterns. If a garment is versatile enough to be worn as general loungewear or sportswear, it may be excluded from this heading and classified under 6103 or 6109 depending on its specific characteristics. The cotton content must be at least 50% by weight to qualify for the 6107.21 subheading. This classification is distinct from woven pajamas, which fall under 6207.21. The distinction is important for customs valuation and the application of trade remedies. Additionally, nightshirts, which are long one-piece garments for sleeping, are also included here. It is important to note that garments that are primarily intended for use as "tracksuits" or "jogging suits" are excluded from this heading, even if they are sometimes worn for sleeping. The primary intent and commercial presentation of the product play a significant role in determining the correct HS code.

Common Misclassification

Pajamas are often misclassified under 6103.22 (ensembles) if they are marketed as loungewear. They are also confused with 6207.21, which is for woven cotton pajamas. If a pajama top is sold individually and resembles a T-shirt, it might be incorrectly classified under 6109.10.
