HS Code for Wool knit fabric

HS code 6006.10 applies to knitted or crocheted fabrics made of wool or fine animal hair that do not fall under the more specific headings of 60.01 through 60.04. This classification is used for bulk textile rolls intended for the garment industry or other manufacturing sectors. To qualify for this code, the fabric must be constructed through the interloping of yarns (knitting) rather than the interlacing of warp and weft (weaving). The category excludes pile fabrics (60.01), which have a raised surface, and fabrics with a high elastomeric content or narrow width (60.02-60.04). The material must consist primarily of wool or fine animal hair, such as mohair or cashmere. If the fabric is a blend, the wool component must be the heaviest textile constituent. This code is essential for distinguishing standard knit constructions like jersey or interlock from specialized technical textiles or woven goods found in Chapter 51.

Common Misclassification

This code is often confused with 5111.11 or 5112.11, which are for woven wool fabrics. It is also frequently misclassified under 6001.10 if the fabric has a long pile surface. Furthermore, if the knit fabric contains more than 5% elastomeric yarn and exceeds 30cm in width, it should be classified under 6004.10.
