Organic Cotton Crew Neck T-Shirt from Germany
A classic short-sleeved crew neck T-shirt made entirely from knitted organic cotton fabric, designed for everyday casual wear. It falls under HTS 6109.10.00 as a T-shirt of cotton, lacking features like drawstrings, ribbed waistbands, or pockets below the waist that would classify it elsewhere. The simple construction and full upper body coverage align with the definition of T-shirts in this heading.

Import Tips
• Verify fiber content is at least 85% cotton via lab testing to confirm Chapter 61 classification and avoid reclassification to man-made fibers
• Label garments clearly with country of origin, care instructions, and fiber content per FTC rules to prevent CBP holds
• Avoid adding drawstrings or ribbed waistbands, as these exclude from 6109 per chapter notes; common pitfall is misclassifying as 6106
