They fall under HTS 6115.21.00 as panty hose made of synthetic fibers with the specified yarn thickness, distinguishing them from thicker hosiery.

Import Tips

• Verify yarn decitex through lab testing certificates to confirm <67 decitex classification and avoid reclassification to higher-duty codes

• Include detailed fiber content labels (e.g

• 100% nylon) on packaging for U.S

• Customs compliance and FTC labeling requirements

• Watch for misdeclaration as tights if opaque; sheer pantyhose must transmit light to qualify under this subheading
