U.S. exports of men's & boys' trousers, breeches & shorts of artificial fibers — woven (HS 6203492500) totaled $101K in June 2026, traded with 19 countries.
Woven (not knitted or crocheted) trousers, breeches, and shorts for men and boys made from artificial fibers — such as viscose rayon or lyocell — classify at 6203492500, a line that carries textile and apparel quota history and remains subject to close scrutiny on fiber content and construction method. Accurate fiber identification is essential: artificial fibers (man-made cellulosic) must be distinguished from synthetic fibers (polyester, nylon) to avoid misclassification between adjacent tariff lines. Apparel from many origins is subject to Section 301 tariffs or standard column 1 rates, and country-of-origin rules for apparel (yarn-forward under most FTAs) significantly affect duty treatment.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Artificial fibers are man-made cellulosic fibers derived from natural polymers, such as viscose rayon, modal, or lyocell. Synthetic fibers are fully man-made from petrochemicals, such as polyester or nylon. The distinction determines which tariff line applies within heading 6203, so laboratory fiber analysis may be needed if the composition is unclear from documentation.
Most US FTAs apply a yarn-forward rule of origin for apparel, meaning the fabric and yarn must originate in an FTA partner country to qualify for preferential duty rates. Importers sourcing from FTA partners should obtain and retain detailed supply-chain documentation to substantiate origin claims.
