HS Code for Wool knit pants
Wool knit pants for women or girls are classified under HS code 6104.61. This classification follows the hierarchical structure of the Harmonized System, where Chapter 61 encompasses knitted or crocheted apparel. Heading 6104 is designated for various women's and girls' garments, including trousers and breeches. The specific subheading 6104.61 is applied when the primary material is wool or fine animal hair. Classification depends on both the gender of the intended wearer and the construction of the fabric. If the garment is constructed from interlocking loops of yarn (knitting) rather than interlacing warp and weft threads (weaving), it must fall under Chapter 61. Furthermore, the weight of the wool component must exceed that of any other single textile material present in the blend to maintain this classification. The term "trousers" includes leggings and slacks, provided they meet the criteria for knitted construction and material composition. This code ensures that high-value wool knitwear is tracked separately from synthetic or cotton alternatives.

Common Misclassification
A common error is classifying these items under 6204.61, which is reserved for woven wool trousers. The physical difference between a knit and a weave is the legal dividing line between Chapters 61 and 62. Another misclassification is 6103.41, which is the corresponding code for men's or boys' wool knit trousers. If the pants are made of a wool-synthetic blend where the synthetic fiber predominates by weight, they should be classified under 6104.63 instead of 6104.61.
