Hanes Men's White Classic Crew Neck T-Shirt from Japan

This is a basic men's T-shirt made of knitted cotton, featuring an all-white color, short hemmed sleeves, hemmed bottom, and crew neckline without pockets, trim, or embroidery. It falls under HTS 6109.10.00.04 as it precisely matches the statistical suffix description for such specific T-shirts in Chapter 61 for made-up knitted or crocheted garments.

Import Tips

• Verify fiber content is 100% cotton via lab tests to confirm Chapter 61 classification and avoid reclassification to man-made fibers

• Ensure no trim, embroidery, or pockets are added post-manufacture, as this could shift to other 6109 subheadings

• Provide detailed commercial invoices specifying 'all white, no trim' to match the exact statistical suffix (352)
