π§΅ Children's Seamless Underwear of Other Materials
π HS Code Reference & Customs Clearance Guide | 2026 Tariff Deep Dive | Professional Clearance Strategy
π I. Product Definition & Classification: What exactly is "Other Materials"?
Children's Seamless Underwear represents a specialized category of hosiery and underwear manufactured without side seams, offering superior comfort and elasticity. In international trade, the term "Other Materials" (as defined in the provided dataset) acts as a catch-all for textiles not classified primarily as Cotton (e.g., Polyester, Nylon, Spandex blends, Modal, Rayon, or synthetic fibers).
Unlike standard cotton underwear which has distinct HS Code paths, "Other Materials" trigger specific 122-Clause tariffs and varying base duties depending on the knitted vs. woven status and the specific classification logic applied by customs.
β οΈ Critical Classification Nuance:
- Knitted (61xx Series): Generally lower base duties, often treated as "Other Knitted Apparel."
- Woven (62xx Series): Often higher base duties due to structural differences.
- Material Ambiguity: If the material is not explicitly Cotton, it falls under the "Other Textile Materials" category, triggering the specific tax rates listed below.
π¦ II. HS Code Classification Matrix (Based on Provided DATA)
The following table details the 5 specific HS Codes identified in your data for Children's Seamless Underwear of Other Materials. Each code carries a unique tax profile.
| HS Code | Product Description & Summary | Total Tax Rate | Key Classification Logic |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6114.90.05.60 | Other Textile Material Men's Seamless Underwear (Form: Men's Undershort, Material: Other Textile) |
29.5% | Knitted (61) + 122 Clause (10%) + Base (12%) + Add-on (7.5%) |
| 6207.19.90.30 | Other Textile Material Men's Seamless Underwear (Usage: Men's Undershort, Material: Other Textile) |
20.5% | Woven (62) + 122 Clause (10%) + Base (10.5%) + No Add-on |
| 6114.90.90.70 | Other Textile Material Men's Seamless Underwear (Name Includes "Other Textile", Knitted Category) |
15.6% | Knitted (61) + 122 Clause (10%) + Base (5.6%) + No Add-on |
| 6107.19.10.00 | Other Textile Material Men's Seamless Underwear (Usage: Men's Undershort, Form: Knitted, Material: Other) |
10.9% | Lowest Tax Bracket! Knitted (61) + 122 Clause (10%) + Base (0.9%) |
| 6207.19.90.10 | Other Textile Material Men's Seamless Underwear (Form: Men's Undershort, Material: Other Textile) |
28.0% | Woven (62) + 122 Clause (10%) + Base (10.5%) + Add-on (7.5%) |
π Important Observation:
- The term "Men's" in the dataset summaries is fixed, but the product description requested is "Children's". In customs practice, if the material is "Other Textile," the Knitted (61) vs. Woven (62) distinction is the primary driver for the tax rate, even if the specific "Children's" label implies a different sub-category than "Men's."
- Caution: If the product is truly for Children but classified under these "Men's" codes due to material composition rules, ensure the "Children" aspect does not trigger a different duty calculation not listed here. However, strictly adhering to the provided DATA, the codes above are the reference points for "Other Textile Materials".
π° III. 2026 Tariff Rate Breakdown (Detailed Tax Mechanics)
π¨ The "122-Clause" & Add-On Tariff Structure
All products in this dataset are subject to a 10% "122-Clause" Tariff (likely referencing specific Section 301 or similar retaliatory/add-on measures). The total tax varies based on the Base Duty and Additional (Add-on) Duty.
π΄ High-Risk Scenarios (28.0% - 29.5% Total)
- HS Codes:
6114.90.05.60&6207.19.90.10 - Composition:
- Base Duty: 12.0% (Knitted) / 10.5% (Woven)
- Add-on Duty: 7.5% (Significant additional tax layer)
- 122-Clause: 10.0%
- Strategy: AVOID these codes if possible. The 7.5% add-on makes these the most expensive options.
π‘ Moderate Risk (20.5% Total)
- HS Code:
6207.19.90.30 - Composition:
- Base Duty: 10.5%
- Add-on Duty: 0.0% (No extra surcharge)
- 122-Clause: 10.0%
- Strategy: A viable middle ground if the product is Woven.
π’ Optimal Clearance (10.9% - 15.6% Total)
- HS Codes:
6114.90.90.70&6107.19.10.00 - Composition:
- Base Duty: 5.6% or 0.9% (Extremely low base for
6107) - Add-on Duty: 0.0%
- 122-Clause: 10.0%
- Base Duty: 5.6% or 0.9% (Extremely low base for
- Strategy:
6107.19.10.00is the Golden Ticket. With only 0.9% Base Duty, the total tax is just 10.9%. This is the most cost-effective classification for "Other Textile" Knitted underwear.
π οΈ IV. Customs Clearance Practical Advice (Action Plan)
β 1. Preparation Checklist (Mandatory)
| Document | Requirement | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Fabric Composition Report | Must explicitly state "Other Textile Materials" (e.g., 88% Polyester, 12% Spandex) | Prevents misclassification as Cotton (which has different codes). |
| Knitting Process Proof | Lab test or factory certification confirming "Seamless/Knitted" structure | Crucial for distinguishing 61xx (Knitted) vs. 62xx (Woven). |
| Size Label | Must indicate "Children's" | Even if using "Men's" HS codes from data, labeling ensures duty consistency. |
| Commercial Invoice | Must list "Children's Seamless Underwear, Other Textile Materials" | Aligns with the specific text in the HS Code summaries. |
β 2. Strategic Classification Tips
π₯ The "Low Base" Rule:
"Prioritize6107.19.10.00(10.9% Total Tax) over6114.90.05.60(29.5% Total Tax)."
| Scenario | Recommended HS Code | Total Tax | Why? |
|---|---|---|---|
| Knitted Underwear (Best Case) | 6107.19.10.00 |
10.9% | Lowest Base (0.9%) + No Add-on. Ideal for saving costs. |
| Knitted Underwear (Standard) | 6114.90.90.70 |
15.6% | Good alternative if 6107 doesn't fit the exact description. |
| Woven Underwear | 6207.19.90.30 |
20.5% | Only choose if the garment is structurally Woven. Avoid 6207.19.90.10 (28%) if possible. |
| Avoid at All Costs | 6114.90.05.60 |
29.5% | High Base + High Add-on + 122 Clause. Only use if forced by specific product specs. |
β 3. Special Handling for "Children's" Labeling
- The Discrepancy: The provided data summaries consistently mention "Men's" (e.g., "Summary: Other textile material men's seamless underwear"), yet the user input is "Children's".
- Risk: Customs may flag a discrepancy between the label (Children) and the HS Code summary text (Men).
- Solution: Ensure the Product Description in the invoice clearly states: "Children's Seamless Underwear (Knitted), Other Textile Materials." Do not rely solely on the HS Code summary text. The Material (Other Textile) and Form (Seamless/Knitted) are the critical tax drivers here.
π V. Market & Cost Comparison (2026 Outlook)
| Market | Recommended HS Code | Base Duty | 122-Clause | Total Effective Rate | Cost Impact |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| High Tariff Market | 6114.90.05.60 |
12.0% | 17.5% | 29.5% | β οΈ Very High |
| Medium Tariff Market | 6207.19.90.30 |
10.5% | 10.5% | 20.5% | β‘ Moderate |
| Optimal Market | 6107.19.10.00 |
0.9% | 10.0% | 10.9% | π’ Best Value |
π‘ Pro Tip: If your "Other Textile" children's underwear is Knitted, fight for classification under
6107.19.10.00. The difference between 29.5% and 10.9% is nearly $18.60 per $100 of goods.
π VI. Common Pitfalls & Avoidance
β Pitfall 1: Misinterpreting "Men's" in the Data
Risk: Using a code labeled "Men's" for "Children's" goods without adjusting the description.
Consequence: Customs may reject the shipment for "Inconsistent Classification."
Fix: Explicitly state "Children's"* in the commercial invoice description, even if the HS Code summary in your system defaults to "Men's."
β Pitfall 2: Ignoring the "Other Materials" Definition
Risk: Classifying as Cotton (if there's <5% cotton) when it's actually Polyester/Spandex.
Consequence: Back-duties and Penalties if the material is audited.
Fix: Provide a Lab Test Report* proving the material is "Other Textile."
β Pitfall 3: Missing the 122-Clause
Risk: Quoting only the "Base Duty" and forgetting the fixed 10% 122-Clause.
Consequence: Budget Shortfall by 10% on every shipment.
Fix: Always calculate Base + 122 + Add-on for the Total Tax*.
π― VII. Conclusion: The Smart Clearance Strategy
- Target the Lowest Rate: Aim for
6107.19.10.00(10.9%) for Knitted items. It offers the lowest base duty and no add-on tax. - Avoid the Add-ons: Steer clear of codes with 7.5% add-ons (
6114.90.05.60,6207.19.90.10). - Label Correctly: Ensure the Children's nature is clear on invoices to avoid disputes, even if the HS Code summary text mentions "Men's."
- Document Everything: Keep Material Certificates ready to prove "Other Textile Materials."
π Final Verdict:
Children's Seamless Underwear of Other Materials is a high-value category where HS Code selection directly dictates profitability. By targeting6107.19.10.00, you can slash your tax burden by more than 50% compared to the highest bracket codes.

About HS Code Classification
The Harmonized System (HS) is an internationally standardized nomenclature developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO) to classify traded products. Over 200 countries use the HS system as the basis for customs tariffs, trade statistics, and import/export regulations.
Each HS code follows a hierarchical structure:
- Chapter (2 digits) β Broad category of goods (e.g., Chapter 84: Machinery and Mechanical Appliances)
- Heading (4 digits) β More specific grouping within the chapter
- Subheading (6 digits) β Internationally standardized breakdown, used by all WCO member countries
- National subdivisions (8-10 digits) β Country-specific extensions for further classification, such as US HTSUS 10-digit codes
Correct HS code classification is essential for smooth customs clearance, accurate duty payment, and compliance with trade regulations. Misclassification can lead to customs delays, overpayment of duties, or penalties.
When importing from CN to US, the applicable tariff rates may include:
- Most-Favored-Nation (MFN) rate β The standard duty rate applied to WTO members
- General rate β Applied to countries without trade agreements
- Trade remedy duties β Additional tariffs such as Section 301 (anti-dumping), Section 232 (national security), or countervailing duties
