Classification of women's wool skirt under HS 6204.51

Women's wool skirts are classified under HS code 6204.51, provided they are made of woven wool or fine animal hair and are not knitted or crocheted. This heading includes standard skirts as well as divided skirts (culottes), which are garments that appear to be skirts but have separate legs. The classification depends on the garment being the lower part of an outfit designed to cover the lower body from the waist down. If the skirt is imported as part of a suit where the jacket and skirt match in fabric and style, it is classified under 6204.11. However, when sold individually or as part of a non-matching set, 6204.51 is the correct designation. The fabric must be woven, which involves the interlacing of warp and weft yarns. This code is strictly for women's and girls' apparel. The wool content must be the predominant textile material by weight. Fine animal hair, such as that from the Kashmir goat or alpaca, is treated the same as sheep's wool for this classification.

Codes often confused with 6204.51

Common mistake. A common misclassification occurs with HS code 6104.51, which is for skirts that are knitted or crocheted. Importers must verify the fabric construction to avoid this error. Another mistake is classifying a skirt under 6204.11 if it is part of a suit; the suit code takes precedence if the items meet the matching requirements. Additionally, if the garment is more like a pair of shorts but has a skirt-like appearance, it must be carefully evaluated to determine if it qualifies as a "divided skirt" under 6204.51 or as shorts under 6204.61.

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).
