Classification of women's cotton anorak under HS 6202.30

Women's cotton anoraks are classified under HS code 6202.30, which covers overcoats, raincoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), and similar articles. This classification is specific to garments made of cotton that are not knitted or crocheted. The Harmonized System distinguishes between "outerwear" designed for protection against weather and "jackets" designed for general wear. Anoraks are typically characterized by their wind-resistant properties, often featuring a hood and a waist drawcord. Under Chapter 62, which deals with woven apparel, heading 6202 is the designated location for these heavy-duty protective garments for women. The choice of subheading 6202.30 is mandatory when the predominant textile component is cotton, following the rules of fiber weight distribution outlined in the Section XI notes of the HS nomenclature.

Codes often confused with 6202.30

Common mistake. The most frequent misclassification occurs with HS code 6204.32, which covers cotton jackets. The distinction lies in the garment's length and intended use; 6202 is for protective outerwear (overcoats/anoraks), while 6204 is for lighter, tailored jackets. Another common error is 6202.40, which is used for anoraks made of man-made fibers like polyester. If the cotton anorak is knitted rather than woven, it must be classified under 6102.20. Additionally, if the garment is treated with a visible coating of plastic (like heavy PVC), it might move to heading 6210.

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).
