Coats, men's or boys', overcoats, rain-coats, car-coats, capes, cloaks and similar, of textile materials (other than wool, fine animal hair, cotton or man-made fibres), other than those of heading no. 6203 (not knitted or crocheted).
Classification of men's overcoat under HS 6201.90
HS code 6201.90 is a specific classification for men's or boys' overcoats, raincoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, and similar articles made from textile materials other than wool, cotton, or man-made fibers. This code belongs to Chapter 62, which encompasses articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are not knitted or crocheted, meaning they are constructed from woven fabrics. Heading 6201 is dedicated to heavy outer garments designed to provide protection against cold or wet weather. Subheading 90 serves as a residual category for garments made from "other" textile materials, such as linen, silk, hemp, ramie, or jute. The classification of a garment under this code requires a thorough fiber content analysis. If a coat is made from a blend of fibers, the classification is usually determined by the fiber that predominates by weight, according to the Section XI notes of the HS. However, if no single fiber predominates, the garment is classified under the heading that occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration. This code excludes garments that are part of a suit or ensemble and those that are knitted. Accurate use of 6201.90 is vital for the correct assessment of duties, as "other" textile materials often have different tariff schedules.

Codes often confused with 6201.90
Common mistake. Common misclassifications include 6201.20 (wool), 6201.30 (cotton), and 6201.40 (man-made fibers). 6201.90 is only for "other" textiles. If a coat is 50% polyester and 50% silk, it usually falls under 6201.40 because man-made fibers often take precedence in classification rules or provide the essential character. Another error is using 6101.90, which is for knitted coats of other textile materials. Additionally, garments that do not reach mid-thigh may be classified as jackets under 6203.

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).
