Questions
HS code 982011: common questions
What is HS code 982011?
HS code 982011 is the World Customs Organization 6-digit HS 2022 subheading for "Apparel articles (other than socks provided for in heading 6115 of the tariff schedule) knit to shape in such a country from yarns wholly formed in the United States; knitted or crocheted apparel articles (except t-shirts, other than underwear, classifiable in subheadings 6109.10.00 and 6109.90.10 and described in subheading 9820.11.12) cut and wholly assembled in one or more such countries from fabrics formed in one or more such countries or from fabrics formed in one or more such countries and the United States, all the foregoing from yarns wholly formed in the United States (including fabrics not formed from yarns, if such fabrics are classifiable in heading 5602 or 5603 of the tariff schedule and are formed in one or more such countries) and subject to the provisions of U.S. note 2(b) to this subchapter". The first two digits (98) are the chapter — Special classification provisions — and digits 3-4 (9820) are the heading. Countries add further digits (8-10) for their national tariff line.
What products fall under HS 982011?
Common products classified under 982011 include US yarn apparel, knit-to-shape garments, US-made yarn clothing, trade preference apparel and similar items matching apparel articles. The correct code still depends on the product's material, function and intended use.
How do I find the import duty for HS code 982011?
Duty is set by the destination country, not by the 6-digit HS code alone. Start from the official tariff of your market — USITC HTS (US), TARIC / Access2Markets (EU), GOV.UK Trade Tariff (UK), CBSA (Canada), ABF (Australia) or Singapore Customs — and look up the full national code with China as the country of origin.
Is HS code 982011 the same in every country?
The first 6 digits (982011) are the same worldwide under the WCO Harmonized System. Beyond that, each country extends the code (HTS in the US, TARIC in the EU, etc.) and sets its own duty and tax rates.
Can I trust the HS code a 1688 supplier gives me?
Treat a supplier-provided code as a clue, not a final classification. It can be incomplete, China-export-specific, or mismatched to your destination's rules. Verify against the official tariff and your product's actual material and use.
