Classification of wool knit dress under HS 6104.41

The classification of a wool knit dress under HS code 6104.41 is determined by the General Rules for the Interpretation (GRI) of the Harmonized System. Specifically, Chapter 61 covers articles of apparel and clothing accessories that are knitted or crocheted. Heading 6104 includes women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts. Within this heading, the subheading 6104.41 is reserved for dresses made specifically from wool or fine animal hair. To qualify for this code, the garment must be a "dress" as defined by the Explanatory Notesโ€”a garment intended to cover the body, starting from the shoulders and extending to the knees or below. The material composition must be predominantly wool or fine animal hair (such as cashmere or mohair) by weight, and the construction method must be knitting or crocheting rather than weaving. This distinction is vital because woven garments fall under Chapter 62. The knit construction provides elasticity and a specific texture that differentiates it from the structured nature of woven wool garments.

Codes often confused with 6104.41

Common mistake. The most frequent misclassification occurs with HS code 6204.41, which covers woven wool dresses. Importers often confuse the two because the material is the same, but the fabric construction (knitted vs. woven) is the primary determinant between Chapter 61 and Chapter 62. Another common error is using 6104.43, which is for dresses made of synthetic fibers; this happens when the wool content is less than the synthetic content by weight. Additionally, if the garment is a long sweater rather than a dress, it might be incorrectly classified under 6110.11.

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).
