HS code for Men's cotton T-shirt, knitted
HS 2022Destination USConfidence 0.85T-shirts, singlets and other vests, knitted or crocheted > Of cotton
Section XI: Textiles and textile articles · Chapter 61: Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, knitted or crocheted · Heading 6109: T-shirts, singlets and other vests, knitted or crocheted
Why this code
The product is a men's short-sleeved upper-body garment of knitted cotton, a T-shirt. Heading 6109 covers T-shirts, singlets and other vests, knitted or crocheted, and Additional Chapter 61 Note 2 confirms that T-shirt-type garments worn next to the body fall there. Chapter 61 Note 1 applies because the article is made up and knitted. Heading 6105 covers shirts with a neckline opening, which a plain T-shirt lacks. Chapter 61 Note 5 does not apply because there is no drawstring or ribbed tightening at the hem. Cotton is the stated material, so subheading 610910 applies. The percentage is not given, so cotton predominance is taken from the seller's statement.
Rules applied: GRI 1, GRI 6, Chapter 61 Note 1, Chapter 61 Note 4, Chapter 61 Note 5, Chapter 61 Additional Note 2, Section XI Note 2.

Information that would confirm the code
- What is the fibre composition percentage? Cotton must predominate by weight (Section XI Note 2) for 610910 to apply.
- Is the garment knitted fabric and a crew-neck or round-neck T-shirt without a neckline placket?

Confidence 0.60. The product is a men's knitted cotton T-shirt with no stated colour or trim details, so the 'all white' line (6109100004) is not supported, and the 'Other T-shirts > Men's' line (6109100012) is the applicable residual for men's T-shirts; confidence is lowered because the data lacks colour, neckline, and trim details.
