📋 Code Structure

Chapter
Chapter 62 covers garments and clothing accessories not knitted or crocheted, i.e., garments made from woven fabrics. This chapter includes men's, women's and children's outerwear, suits, shirts, pajamas, underwear, etc., but excludes knitted or crocheted garments (Chapter 61) as well as quilted products, leather garments, etc. Goods in this chapter are generally further subdivided by fabric type, gender, and style.
Heading
Heading 6207 specifically covers men's or boys' pajamas, bathrobes, dressing gowns and similar articles, including nightshirts, pajama shorts, pajama trousers, nightgowns, etc., which may be made of cotton, man-made fibers, wool, silk, etc. Goods under this heading must be non-knitted or non-crocheted woven garments, and must be explicitly for men's or boys' wear.
Digit Breakdown
The first 2 digits "62" represent Chapter 62: Garments and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted. Digits 3-4 "07" represent Heading 6207: Men's or boys' pajamas, bathrobes, dressing gowns and similar articles. Digits 5-6 "21" represent Subheading 620721: Men's or boys' pajamas and similar articles, of cotton. Therefore, 620721 in full means "Men's pajamas of cotton (woven)".
Classification Basis
The goods are men's pajamas of cotton, woven fabric, not knitted or crocheted, therefore classified under Chapter 62 rather than Chapter 61. They are also men's pajamas, so classified under 6207 rather than 6208 (women's pajamas). The material is cotton, so classified under 620721 rather than 620722 (of man-made fibers) or 620729 (of other materials).
