Classification of men's wool knit trousers under HS 6103.41

Men's wool knit trousers are classified under HS code 6103.41. This classification is governed by the rules of Chapter 61, which encompasses all apparel that is constructed through knitting or crocheting. The specific heading 6103 applies to men's or boys' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts. The choice of subheading 6103.41 is dictated by the material composition, specifically wool or fine animal hair. To qualify for this code, the trousers must be knitted, which distinguishes them from the woven trousers found in Chapter 62. The classification process involves verifying the stitch count and the elasticity of the fabric to ensure it meets the technical definition of 'knitted' as per the Explanatory Notes to the Harmonized System. Furthermore, the garment must be designed for men or boys, typically identified by the cut and the direction of the fly or closure, though many knit trousers feature elasticated waistbands.

Codes often confused with 6103.41

Common mistake. A common error is classifying these items under 6203.41, which is reserved for woven wool trousers. Another frequent misclassification is 6115, which covers hosiery and leggings; however, if the garment is constructed as trousers with a fly or distinct leg structure, 6103.41 is correct. Additionally, if the trousers are part of a track suit, they should be classified under 6112.11, provided they meet the specific criteria for athletic sets.

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).
