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.
