HS Code 6117Clothing accessories; made up, knitted or crocheted, knitted or crocheted parts of garments or of clothing accessories

What HS code 6117 covers

Heading 6117 is for small knitted or crocheted items that you wear or add to clothes. Shawls, scarves, mufflers and veils are the common examples. It also takes other made up clothing accessories that have no better home, and knitted or crocheted parts of garments or of clothing accessories.

The harmonized system classification works like a path. Section XI covers textiles. Heading 6117 narrows it again to accessories and parts. The six-digit subheadings are the finest level shown on this page. You may also see the same four digits written as HSN code 6117.

The key phrase is "knitted or crocheted". These goods are made by looping yarn, not by weaving cloth. If an accessory is made another way, it belongs in a different chapter.

HS code for knitted scarves and shawls: how to choose the right code

Each subheading has a clear job. Read all three before you pick one.

Start with the product in front of you. Ask what it is, then ask whether it is a whole item or only a piece of something. This is also how to confirm the correct HS code for knitted accessories. Check the wording of the subheading, not just the product name used in your trade.

• A knit scarf or shawl fits here.
• 611780: other knitted or crocheted clothing accessories, not elsewhere specified in heading 6117. Use it when the item is an accessory but is none of the items named above.
• 611790: parts, knitted or crocheted. Use it when you ship a piece of a garment or accessory, not a finished item.

Gloves, hosiery and babies' items: nearby headings

Some knitted accessories look like they belong here but have their own heading. Check these before you settle on 6117.

Knitted garments that fit nowhere else in the chapter go to heading 6114.

If you are still unsure, run the product through the HS code classifier to compare headings side by side.
