Classification of women's wool trousers under HS 6204.61
HS code 6204.61 covers women's or girls' trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts made of wool or fine animal hair that are woven rather than knitted. These garments are designed to cover the lower part of the body, covering each leg separately. The classification depends heavily on the textile material; "wool" refers to the natural fiber from sheep or lambs, while "fine animal hair" refers to hair from alpaca, llama, vicuna, camel, yak, Angora, Tibetan, Kashmir, or similar goats. To fall under this code, the garment must not be part of a suit set as defined in the HS nomenclature. If the trousers are part of a suit, they are classified under 6204.11. The distinction between woven and knitted (Chapter 61) is a primary factor in determining the correct heading. Furthermore, the garment must be specifically cut for women or girls; if the garment has a front opening that closes left over right, it is generally considered a male garment and classified under 6203.41.

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).
