Last updated: September 2026 dataWool and fine animal hair knitted or crocheted fabrics not covered by headings 6001–6005 are consolidated here, capturing circular and flat-knit constructions in cashmere, merino, alpaca, and similar premium fibers used in high-end apparel and accessories. Italy leads US supply, consistent with its role as a global center for luxury wool knit fabric production, with Thailand and Australia also among the top sources. A single US tariff line (6006100000) covers the full range, meaning fiber grade distinctions — such as cashmere versus standard wool — must be documented in commercial invoices and supported by fiber content testing rather than resolved by separate tariff lines.
