π HS Code Reference & Clearance Guide | 2026 Latest Tariff Breakdown | Professional Entry Strategy
π I. Product Definition & Classification: Do You Know What "Fine Animal Hair Underwear" Really Is?
"Fine Animal Hair Underwear" refers to knitted or crocheted garments made from wool, cashmere, alpaca, mohair, or other fine animal fibers. This category includes:
- Men's & Boys' Items: Underpants, briefs, nightshirts, pajamas, bathrobes, dressing gowns.
- Women's & Girls' Items: Slips, petticoats, briefs, panties, nightdresses, pajamas, negligees, bathrobes, dressing gowns.
β οΈ Critical Distinction:
- Material: Must be Knitted or Crocheted (not woven).
- Fiber Content: Must contain "Other textile materials" that are not cotton, synthetic fibers, or man-made fibers. Specifically, it falls under "Of wool or fine animal hair".
- If the item contains >50% cotton or synthetic fibers: It belongs to a completely different HS code (e.g., 6107.11 for cotton).
- If woven: It belongs to the "Woven" chapter (62), not the "Knitted" chapter (61) found below.
π¦ II. HS Code Classification Details (2026 Latest Tariff Reference)
| HS Code | Product Description | Gender/Category | Material Type | Application Scenario |
|---|---|---|---|---|
6107.19.90.00 |
Men's/Boys' Underpants/Briefs: Of other textile materials, Other | Men's/Boys | Other textile materials (Non-wool/fine hair if "Other" category, but note: this specific code in the data implies "Other" material, however, the data provided also lists wool codes for other items). (Note: Based strictly on the provided data context, this code is for "Other" textile materials. If your product is 100% fine animal hair, see codes below for "Of wool or fine animal hair" where applicable, or confirm if "Other" is the correct classification for your specific blend). |
Everyday men's underwear (if material is not strictly wool/fine hair or if the specific sub-category for wool falls elsewhere in this dataset). |
6107.29.20.00 |
Men's/Boys' Nightshirts & Pajamas: Of other textile materials: Of wool or fine animal hair | Men's/Boys | Wool or Fine Animal Hair | Winter pajamas, thermal nightshirts for men/boys. |
6108.39.10.00 |
Women's/Girls' Nightdresses & Pajamas: Of other textile materials: Of wool or fine animal hair | Women's/Girls | Wool or Fine Animal Hair | Winter nightgowns, pajama sets for women/girls. |
6108.99.20.00 |
Women's/Girls' Other (Slips, Briefs, etc.): Of other textile materials: Of wool or fine animal hair | Women's/Girls | Wool or Fine Animal Hair | Silk-like slips, fine animal hair briefs, lingerie. |
π Key Clarification Based on Data:
The provided dataset explicitly lists6107.29.20.00and6108.39.10.00/6108.99.20.00for "Of wool or fine animal hair".
If your "Fine Animal Hair Underwear" is Men's Underpants, the data provided (6107.19.90.00) lists it under "Of other textile materials", which might imply a generic classification if the specific wool code isn't listed for men's briefs in this specific dataset, OR it requires a specific check.
However, for Men's Pajamas and Women's Pajamas/Nightwear, the "Fine Animal Hair" specific codes are clearly identified.
Action: Verify if men's underpants made of fine animal hair are meant to be6107.29.20.00(if the dataset implies a broader "wool" category for men's sleepwear but6107.19.90.00for briefs) or if the user's specific product falls into the "Other textile materials" bucket for briefs.
Correction based on strict data interpretation: The data shows6107.29.20.00for Men's Pajamas (Wool/Fine Hair) but6107.19.90.00for Men's Underpants/Briefs (Other). If your men's briefs are 100% Fine Animal Hair, you may need to check if a specific "Wool" code exists for men's briefs that isn't in this snippet, or if6107.19.90.00is the correct "Other" code for non-cotton/non-synthetic blends in this jurisdiction.
Assumption for this guide: We will use the exact codes provided in the DATA for the specific descriptions.

π οΈ IV. Clearance Practical Advice (Real-World Pitfalls)
β 1. Documentation Checklist (Must-Haves)
| Document | Must Provide? | Why? |
|---|---|---|
| β Fiber Content Certificate | YES | Must prove Wool or Fine Animal Hair (e.g., Cashmere, Mohair, Alpaca). Customs may reject if it looks like cotton but claims "fine hair". |
| β Composition Label | YES | The label inside the garment must match the HS Code claim (e.g., "100% Cashmere" or "80% Wool, 20% Silk"). |
| β Knitting Confirmation | YES | Must be Knitted or Crocheted (Chapter 61). If it's woven (Chapter 62), the tax and code will change. |
| β Product Photos | YES | Show the texture (fine hair) and the garment type (Pajamas vs. Underwear). |
| β Invoice & Packing List | YES | Clearly state "Fine Animal Hair Underwear/Pajamas". |
β 2. Declaration Strategy
π₯ Golden Rule: "Fiber Truth, Knit First, Type Specific!"
| Scenario | Correct Declaration | Wrong Declaration | Consequence |
|---|---|---|---|
| Men's Cashmere Pajamas | 6107.29.20.00 (Wool/Fine Hair) |
6107.19.90.00 (Other) |
Potential audit for misclassification, though tax is same in this data. |
| Women's Silk/Mohair Slip | 6108.99.20.00 (Wool/Fine Hair) |
6108.90.00 (Generic) |
Risk of re-classification and fines. |
| Men's Cotton Briefs | 6107.11.00 (Cotton) |
6107.19.90.00 (Other) |
High Risk: Wrong code leads to tax discrepancy. |
| Woven Wool Pyjamas | 6207.xx.xx (Woven) |
6107.xx.xx (Knitted) |
Major Error: Wrong Chapter! |
β 3. Special Handling
| Situation | Advice |
|---|---|
| Mixed Fibers | If the blend is 50% Fine Animal Hair + 50% Cotton, the classification might change to "Cotton" (6107.11). Pure or dominant Fine Animal Hair is required for the 0% Wool code. |
| OEM / Private Label | Ensure the supplier's label matches the HS Code description. "Men's Underwear" is vague; "Men's Knitted Pajamas of Wool" is specific. |
| Luxury Brand Claim | Do not use terms like "Premium" or "Designer" as HS Code descriptors. Stick to Material + Function + Gender. |
π V. Market Comparison (2026 Overview)
| Market | Recommended HS Code | Tax Rate (Data Source) | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Provided Data Context | 6107.29.20.00, 6108.39.10.00, 6108.99.20.00 |
0.0% | Duty-free for Fine Animal Hair. |
| USA (General) | 6107.29.20.00 |
Often 16-20% + 301 Duties | Check 301 List - Wool/Pajamas may not be exempt in US. |
| EU | 6107.29.20.00 |
~4-6% | No 301 style duties, but strict fiber labeling (Textile Regulation). |
| China Export | 6107.29.20.00 |
0.0% | As per provided data. |
π Conclusion:
In the context of the provided dataset, Fine Animal Hair Underwear and Nightwear are duty-free (0%).
However, if exporting to the USA, you MUST verify against the Section 301 list, as "Knitted Wool/Pajamas" often face 25% additional tariffs despite the base rate being low.
For the provided data: The strategy is simple: Ensure the material is truly Fine Animal Hair and the item is Knitted, then enjoy the 0% tax.
π VI. Common Errors & Avoidance Tips (Lessons Learned)
β Error 1: Calling "Men's Underpants" "Pajamas" to get a "Wool" code.
π Result: Customs sees the garment is briefs, not pajamas. Misclassification.
β Error 2: Claiming "Fine Animal Hair" but the product is 100% Acrylic or Cotton.
π Result: Severe Penalty for false declaration. "Fine Animal Hair" is strictly regulated.
β Error 3: Confusing Knitted (61) with Woven (62).
π Result: Wrong Chapter. Woven wool pajamas have different codes and potentially different taxes.
β Correct Approach:
"Men's Knitted Pajamas, 100% Cashmere, Model XYZ" β
6107.29.20.00.
"Women's Knitted Nightdress, 100% Alpaca" β6108.39.10.00.
π― VII. Final Verdict: Zero Tax Strategy for Fine Hair Garments
π― Key Takeaway:
πΉ If Knitted + Fine Animal Hair + Nightwear/Underwear = 0.0% Tax (Based on provided data).
πΉ Verification is King: The Fiber Content is the most critical factor.
πΉ Action: Get a lab test for fiber composition to prove "Wool or Fine Animal Hair" before shipping.
π Pro Tip:
If you are exporting to USA, EU, or other major markets, DO NOT rely solely on this data. The "0%" might be specific to a certain trade agreement or country. Always cross-check with the destination country's 2026 Tariff Schedule.
π£ Call to Action:

π Protect your margins: Mislabeling luxury wool as "cotton" or vice versa costs thousands in fines.

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
