Last updated: August 2026 dataWool and fine animal hair — including cashmere, merino, and alpaca — give this heading its premium positioning in the women's knitwear market, and the single 10-digit line 6104510000 covers the full range without further subdivision. Italy dominates US imports under this heading, reflecting the concentration of luxury wool knitwear manufacturing in northern Italian mills, with China and the United Kingdom also among the leading sources. Tariff classification hinges on confirming that the chief weight fiber is wool or fine animal hair rather than a wool-blend tipping into synthetic or artificial fiber territory. Peru's presence among top suppliers signals growing alpaca-fiber skirt trade, where fiber-origin documentation under CITES-adjacent traceability standards may be relevant for certain specialty fibers.

Yes. Alpaca is explicitly recognized as a fine animal hair under the Harmonized System, so knitted skirts whose chief weight fiber is alpaca are properly classified under 610451 alongside cashmere, angora rabbit, and other fine animal hair garments.
CBP may request a manufacturer's fiber content certification, laboratory test results (e.g., AATCC or ISO fiber analysis), or a commercial invoice explicitly stating the fiber composition by percentage. For high-value wool or cashmere garments, independent lab testing is advisable to defend the classification against potential reappraisal.
