CHAPTER

62 — Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted

In plain English

This heading covers non-knitted or crocheted garments and clothing accessories designed for babies. The items are divided into categories based on their material composition. One category includes those made of cotton, while another covers those made of synthetic fibers. A third category applies to babies' garments and accessories made from other textile materials that are neither cotton nor synthetic fibers.

Chapter 62 classification notes

Similar trade dynamics to Chapter 61 but generally higher per-unit value. Duty rates 12-30%. Country of origin labelling mandatory in most markets. Anti-dumping and safeguard duties sometimes applied.

Frequent misclassification in this chapter

Garments with knitted panels may still classify here if the body is woven. Garment sets must be classified by the piece that gives the essential character.

Classification certainty

The 6-digit level shown here is the internationally harmonised layer. Duty rates attach to national 8-10 digit tariff lines, which differ by country — use the duty calculator for lane estimates. For binding certainty, request a ruling from the destination customs authority.
