Last updated: August 2026 dataFiber composition drives the classification split here: pantyhose and tights made from cotton, wool, silk, or other non-synthetic textiles fall under 611529 rather than the synthetic-fiber headings. The US schedule breaks this out into five 10-digit lines, including a dedicated line for articles containing 70% or more silk or silk waste (6115294000), cotton (6115298010), wool or fine animal hair (6115298020), and lower-silk-content blends (6115298040). China leads supply, with Egypt and Vietnam as notable sources for cotton and blended constructions. Correct fiber-content documentation is essential, as the silk-threshold lines carry different duty treatment.

CBP may require laboratory fiber-analysis test results or a manufacturer's certification confirming that the article contains 70% or more silk or silk waste by weight. Importers should obtain fiber composition documentation from the foreign supplier before entry to substantiate the classification and avoid reclassification at the port.
Cotton pantyhose and tights are classified under 6115298010 within heading 611529, while synthetic-fiber pantyhose fall under heading 611522 (67 decitex or more) or other synthetic subheadings. The key determinant is the chief weight or chief value of the fiber content, so accurate fiber-composition declarations from the manufacturer are critical.
