Women's Silk Bermuda Shorts from Canada
These women's Bermuda shorts are made from pure silk or silk waste fabric, featuring a tailored fit with an above-knee length, designed for casual or semi-formal wear. They fall under HTS 6204.69.6550 as women's shorts of silk or silk waste, not swimwear, within the category of trousers, breeches, and shorts of other textile materials. The right-over-left closure and women's cut confirm classification in women's or girls' garments.

Import Tips
• Verify silk content exceeds 70% via lab tests for accurate Chapter 62 classification; blends under 70% may shift to 6204.62
• Include fiber content labels and invoices specifying 'silk or silk waste' to avoid reclassification during customs exam
• Avoid pockets below waist or ribbed waistbands, as these exclude from 6204 per chapter notes, risking shift to 6210
