How customs classifies tops and blouses
6206 blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses (woven) / 6106 (knit). Chapter 62 Note 4 (Chapter 61 Note 4): 'blouses' are loose-fitting upper-body garments, may be sleeveless, with or without opening; 'shirts/shirt-blouses' have sleeves and full/partial opening from the neckline. Excluded from 6206/6106 (-> 6211 woven / 6114 knit): garments with pockets below the waist, ribbed waistband or hem-tightening (Chapter 61 adds: <10 stitches/cm -> 6110). Knit T-shirt-style tops (no collar/opening, pullover) are 6109 - see 'tops-knit-tshirt-style' row. Fibre sub-headings: 6206 .10 silk, .30 cotton, .40 man-made (viscose AND polyester together), .90 other (linen); 6106 .10 cotton, .20 man-made, .90 other. Fabric: cotton. CONSTRUCTION: woven -> Chapter 62 (not knitted or crocheted). Blends: classify by the fibre predominating by weight (Section XI Subheading Note 2(A) -> Note 2 to Section XI; tie = heading last in numerical order).
Knitted or woven decides the chapter: knitted and crocheted garments are Chapter 61, woven garments Chapter 62. For blends, the fibre that is largest by weight decides (Section XI, Subheading Note 2).
