Chapter 65 covers headgear and parts thereof, including hats, headwear, and semi-finished products made of various materials. This chapter mainly includes knitted or crocheted headgear, woven or plaited headgear, other headgear (such as safety helmets, rubber hats, etc.), and parts of hats (such as hat linings, hat interlinings, hat covers, hat brims, etc.). This chapter does not include: worn hats (heading 6309), animal headgear (heading 4303), doll hats (heading 9503), etc. If hat parts are declared separately, they should be classified under heading 6507. Heading 6507 covers hat parts such as hat linings, hat interlinings, hat covers, hat frames, hat brims, and hat bands, regardless of material (except asbestos hat linings which are classified under 6812). These parts are components specifically used for hats, not complete hats. For example, a hat lining is the lining inside a hat that contacts the head; a hat interlining is the inner layer material of a hat; a hat cover is a protective or decorative cover that covers the outside of a hat. This heading also includes hat skeletons (such as hat frames) and accessories such as hat brims and hat bands. The first 2 digits 65 represent Chapter 65 'Headgear and parts thereof', covering all types of hats and their dedicated parts. The 3rd-4th digits 07 represent heading 6507, specifically 'Hat linings, hat interlinings, hat covers, hat frames, hat brims, and hat bands', which are components of hats, not complete hats. The 5th-6th digits 00 indicate that there is no further subdivision under this heading; all goods classified under this heading use the same subheading. Therefore, 650700 is a complete 6-digit HS code used to identify hat parts. The goods are hat linings, hat interlinings, and hat covers, which are dedicated parts of hats, not complete hats. Complete hats should be classified under headings 6501 to 6506 (such as knitted hats, woven hats, etc.). Hat linings, hat interlinings, and hat covers are components of hats. When declared separately, according to General Interpretative Rule 1 and the notes to Chapter 65, they should be classified under heading 6507. If declared together with hats, they are classified as hats.

Product Name: The specific name of the declared goods, such as 'hat lining', 'hat interlining', or 'hat cover', and should accurately describe their use and material. Material: The main material of the declared goods, such as cotton, chemical fiber, leather, plastic, etc., must be specified.

Specifications and Dimensions: The dimensions of the declared goods, such as length, width, thickness, etc., with units clearly specified. Processing Method: Explain the processing technique, such as 'knitted', 'woven', 'injection molded', etc. Packaging Type: The packaging method of the declared goods, such as 'plastic bag packaging', 'carton packaging', etc. Product Name: Hat lining; Material: 100% polyester knitted fabric; Use: Used for baseball cap inner lining; Brand: No brand; Model: HL-2023; Specifications and Dimensions: Length 20cm x Width 15cm; Processing Method: Knitted; Packaging Type: Plastic bag packaging, 100 pieces per bag. Mistakenly declaring hat lining as 'hat', leading to classification under 6505 or 6506, when it should actually be classified under 6507. Material declaration not specific, such as only writing 'fabric', should specify 'cotton fabric' or 'chemical fiber fabric'. Use description unclear, not stating it is used for hats, may be mistakenly classified under other headings.

Core classification criteria: According to the Import and Export Tariff and the Harmonized Commodity Description and Coding System, hat linings, hat interlinings, and hat covers are dedicated parts of hats and should be classified under heading 6507. If declared together with hats, they are classified as hats. If declared separately, it is necessary to determine whether they are exclusively used for hats. If the material is asbestos, they are classified under 6812. In addition, if they are knitted or crocheted hat linings but not exclusively used for hats, they may be classified under other chapters. 650100 Knitted or crocheted headgear: 6501 is complete hats, while 6507 is hat parts. If hat linings are declared together with hats, they are classified as hats; if declared separately, they are classified under 6507. 650500 Other headgear: 6505 is complete hats, including knitted or crocheted headgear. If hat linings are combined with hats, they may be classified under 6505, but when declared separately they are still classified under 6507. 630790 Other textile articles: 6307 is other textile articles. If hat linings are not exclusively used for hats, they may be classified under 6307. However, linings exclusively used for hats should be classified under 6507. 392620 Plastic hat linings: Plastic hat linings, if plastic products, may be classified under 3926, but if exclusively used for hats, they should still be classified under 6507. Exclusivity must be considered during classification. 681299 Asbestos hat linings: Asbestos hat linings are classified under 6812, not 6507. Because asbestos materials have special classification rules. Is the product exclusively used for hats? Is the product declared separately? Is the product material asbestos? Is the product a complete hat? Is the product declared together with hats?

What is the HS code for hat linings and hat interlinings? Hat linings and hat interlinings are both hat parts and should be classified under HS code 650700. However, note that if declared together with hats, they are classified as complete hats, possibly under 6501 to 6506. Which HS code should hat covers be classified under? Hat covers, as protective or decorative covers for hats, if declared separately, should be classified under 650700. If declared together with hats, they are classified as hats. How to distinguish hat linings from complete hats? A hat lining is the lining inside a hat and is usually not used alone as a hat; a complete hat is a finished product that can be worn directly. If a hat lining is declared together with a hat, it is regarded as a complete hat. What is the HS code for plastic hat linings? Plastic hat linings, if exclusively used for hats, are still classified under 650700. However, if they are general plastic products, they may be classified under 3926. Judgment should be based on exclusivity. What is the HS code for asbestos hat linings? Asbestos hat linings should be classified under 6812, not 6507. Because asbestos products have special classification rules, attention must be paid to the material. What is the HS code for hat brims and hat bands? Hat brims and hat bands, as hat parts, if declared separately, should be classified under 650700. If declared together with hats, they are classified as hats. What elements are required when declaring hat linings? Declaration elements include product name, material, use, brand, model, specifications and dimensions, processing method, packaging type, etc. They must be filled in accurately to avoid classification errors. How to check the tariff rate for hat linings? The tariff rate must be determined according to the specific country, trade agreements, and product material. It can be checked through customs tariffs, official websites, or by consulting a customs broker. Note that rates may change, and the latest announcement shall prevail.
