Last updated: July 2026 dataFine-denier construction — measuring less than 67 decitex per single yarn — defines this heading, covering sheer women's stockings and knee-highs that are distinct from heavier pantyhose. The US schedule subdivides by fiber: a silk-dominant line (6115301000, containing 70% or more silk), a man-made fiber line (6115309010), and a lower-silk-content blend line (6115309030). China is the primary supplier, with Taiwan and Italy also significant sources, the latter particularly associated with premium sheer hosiery. The fine-denier threshold is a frequent classification issue when suppliers blend fibers across the 67-decitex boundary.

Heading 611530 covers women's full-length or knee-length hosiery (stockings, knee-highs) measuring less than 67 decitex per single yarn — typically sheer or ultra-sheer products. Heading 611522 covers pantyhose and tights of synthetic fibers at 67 decitex or more, which are heavier and more opaque. The product form (stocking vs. pantyhose/tight) and the decitex measurement together determine the correct heading.
When yarn fineness is near the boundary, importers should obtain certified laboratory test results for decitex per single yarn from the manufacturer. CBP can request such documentation during examination, and a misclassification between the sub-67 and 67-or-more headings can result in different duty rates. Consulting a licensed customs broker before entry is advisable for borderline cases.
