Women's Cotton-Flax Waistcoat Vest from Germany
A sleeveless women's vest made from knitted cotton fabric containing over 36% flax fibers, designed as a formal waistcoat alternative without sweater-like features. It falls under HTS 6110.20.10.24 due to its cotton-flax composition, women's sizing, and classification as a non-sweater vest in Chapter 61 for made-up knitted articles. The high flax content provides a linen-like texture while meeting the specific fiber threshold.

Import Tips
• Verify fiber content via lab testing to confirm ≥36% flax, as misdeclaration can lead to reclassification or penalties
• Ensure labeling complies with FTC rules for fiber composition and country of origin on knitted garments
• Avoid common pitfalls like importing with pockets below waist, which may shift to heading 6106
