Last updated: July 2026 dataWoven handkerchiefs — distinguished from knitted versions by their interlaced warp-and-weft construction — are classified based on the chief fiber weight, with cotton, silk, and man-made fiber handkerchiefs each assigned to distinct tariff lines. Despite their modest unit value, handkerchiefs are subject to standard textile labeling requirements under the Textile Fiber Products Identification Act, including fiber content and country-of-origin disclosure. The category spans both functional everyday handkerchiefs and decorative pocket squares used in the men's formalwear trade.

CBP does not maintain a separate tariff heading for pocket squares; both functional handkerchiefs and decorative pocket squares fall under the handkerchief heading. The classification is based on the article's size, construction, and commercial presentation as a handkerchief-type article, regardless of whether it is marketed as a pocket square.
Classification follows the chief weight of the textile fibers. A handkerchief woven primarily of cotton falls under the cotton handkerchief provision; one of silk or silk waste under the silk provision; and one of synthetic or artificial fibers under the man-made fiber provision. Mixed-fiber handkerchiefs require a fiber weight analysis, typically supported by a laboratory test report.
