About HTS Chapter 60

HTS Chapter 60 - Knitted or crocheted fabrics - organizes 178 tariff classifications in the US Harmonized Tariff Schedule. Of these, 60 carry explicit duty rates at the tariff-line level, meaning importers can look up a specific Column 1 General (MFN) rate for every qualifying shipment. Chapter 60 sits within Section XI (Textiles and Textile Articles), which groups commercially related product categories together.

The average general duty rate across all tariff lines in this chapter is 10.1%, with the highest individual rate reaching 18.5%. Rates this high indicate a sensitive sector where US policy protects domestic producers, importers should expect meaningful duty costs and consider whether FTA-origin sourcing can reduce the landed price. Below, each line links to its individual detail page showing General, Special (FTA), and Column 2 rates.

Use this chapter page as the entry point for classifying any product that falls under knitted or crocheted fabrics. The tree below preserves the HTS indentation hierarchy (heading → subheading → tariff line), so you can narrow from broad category to specific 8-10 digit code. All data comes from the US International Trade Commission (USITC) HTS 2026 Basic Edition, the official schedule of import duties used by US Customs and Border Protection.
