For the specific subheading HTS 620892, we recommend you:
- Verify the correct 10-digit statistical suffix — even within a 6-digit subheading, duty rates can differ significantly between suffixes
- Check FTA eligibility — if your product qualifies for preferential treatment under USMCA, KORUS, or another FTA, you may reduce or eliminate duties by providing the required origin certification
- Monitor for trade remedy changes — Section 301, Section 232, and anti-dumping duties are updated periodically. A rate that was correct last quarter may have changed
- Consult CBP resources — for binding classification rulings, CBP's National Commodity Specialist Division provides written determinations
Frequently Asked Questions About HTS 620892

Can I get duty-free treatment for goods classified under HTS 620892?
While the General rate for this heading is not zero, many products qualify for duty-free or reduced-rate treatment under Free Trade Agreements (USMCA, KORUS, and others) if they meet the applicable rules of origin. Check the Special rate column for your specific country of origin. You must provide origin certification to claim FTA preferences.
How do I know if I am using the correct HTS classification?
The correct HTS classification depends on the specific product's composition, function, and in some cases its country of origin. For binding certainty, you can request a written ruling from CBP's National Commodity Specialist Division. Misclassification can result in retroactive duties, penalties under 19 USC §1592, and interest on underpaid amounts. For products classified under heading 620892, the key classification factors include the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI), Section Notes, and Chapter Notes.

HTS Chapter 62 Classification Guide: Woven Apparel (Not Knitted)
Chapter 62 covers woven apparel and clothing accessories that are not knitted or crocheted — suits, jackets, dresses, skirts, trousers, shirts, blouses, and woven fabric garments. Classification follows the same garment-type hierarchy as Chapter 61 but applies exclusively to woven construction. The key distinction from Chapter 61 is the fabric manufacturing method.
Common Misclassification Errors
- Classifying woven garments under Chapter 61 (knit) — a woven cotton dress shirt is Chapter 62, while a knitted cotton polo shirt is Chapter 61
- Misapplying Section 301 List 3 (25%) vs. List 4A (7.5%) — many woven garments face List 3 at 25%, which is significantly higher than knit apparel's List 4A at 7.5%
- Failing to understand that country of origin for woven apparel is where the garment is assembled, not where the fabric is woven
Duty Calculation Tips for HTS 620892
Woven apparel from China faces higher Section 301 rates (List 3, 25%) compared to knit apparel (List 4A, 7.5%). This creates a significant cost differential. USMCA yarn-forward rule applies. Consider sourcing from USMCA countries, Vietnam (comprehensive FTA negotiation), or other non-Section-301 origins to reduce duty burden.
Chapter 62 Frequently Asked Questions
Why do woven garments face higher Section 301 duties than knit garments from China?
Woven apparel (Chapter 62) was placed on Section 301 List 3, which carries a 25% additional duty. Knit apparel (Chapter 61) was placed on List 4A at 7.5%. The distinction is based on the USTR's product categorization during the tariff list development, not on any inherent difference in trade impact.
How is country of origin determined for woven apparel?
Under 19 CFR §102.21, the origin of woven apparel is where the garment is wholly assembled. If the fabric is woven in China but the garment is cut and sewn in Mexico, the origin is Mexico. This is critical for Section 301 compliance — a garment assembled outside China may avoid Section 301 duties even if the fabric is Chinese-origin.
Can woven apparel qualify for USMCA duty-free treatment?
Yes, if the garment meets the yarn-forward rule: the yarn must be spun, the fabric woven, and the garment assembled within the USMCA region. Using Chinese fabric to cut and sew in Mexico does NOT qualify for USMCA preferential rates.
What is the difference in duty rates between Chapter 61 and Chapter 62?
Both chapters have similar MFN duty rate ranges (5-32%), but the Section 301 treatment differs significantly. Chinese-origin woven apparel (Ch. 62) faces 25% additional duty (List 3), while knit apparel (Ch. 61) faces 7.5% (List 4A). This can mean a 17.5 percentage point difference in total duty burden.
Do I need UFLPA compliance documentation for woven cotton garments?
Yes. The UFLPA applies to all cotton products, whether knit or woven, if they contain cotton that may have originated in Xinjiang. Importers must provide supply chain documentation tracing cotton to farms outside Xinjiang. CBP has detained thousands of textile shipments under UFLPA since 2022.
