Coats, women's or girls' overcoats, car-coats, capes, anoraks, wind-jackets and similar articles, of textile materials n.e.c. in heading no. 6102, knitted or crocheted (excluding those of heading no. 6104).

Classification of women's knit anorak under HS 6102.90

The classification of a women's knit anorak under HS code 6102.90 is determined by its construction method and material composition. According to the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI), products are classified based on the terms of the headings and any relative section or chapter notes. Chapter 61 of the Harmonized System is dedicated to articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are knitted or crocheted. Heading 6102 specifically encompasses women's or girls' overcoats, car-coats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), wind-cheaters, wind-jackets, and similar articles. When these garments are made from textile materials other than wool, fine animal hair, cotton, or man-made fibersโ€”such as silk, flax, or hempโ€”they fall into the residual subheading 6102.90. The defining characteristic is the knitted or crocheted nature of the fabric, which provides stretch and a different structural integrity compared to woven alternatives. This code is used for garments that provide protection against the weather but are constructed using interlocking loops of yarn rather than the interlacing of warp and weft threads found in woven fabrics. Importers must verify the fiber content through laboratory testing or manufacturer specifications to ensure the "other textile materials" designation is accurate, as even a small percentage of synthetic fiber could potentially shift the classification to a different subheading within the same heading.

Codes often confused with 6102.90

Common mistake. A frequent error is confusing 6102.90 with 6202.90. The primary difference lies in the fabric construction; 6102.90 is for knitted or crocheted items, while 6202.90 is for woven items. Additionally, if the garment is part of a suit or ensemble, it might be incorrectly classified here instead of under heading 6104, which covers suits and ensembles. Another common mistake involves the material; if the anorak is made of man-made fibers like polyester, it must be classified under 6102.30 rather than 6102.90.

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).
