Last updated: August 2026 dataUnblocked, brimless felt hat bodies — including hoods, plateaux, and manchons — are intermediate millinery components traded before final shaping and finishing. Classified at the semi-finished stage, these forms are distinct from blocked or trimmed headwear and attract different duty treatment than completed hats. Importers should confirm fiber composition (wool felt vs. fur-felt vs. synthetic felt) when classifying, as the material distinction can affect applicable duty rates and quota exposure.

A hat body or hood under this heading must be neither blocked to shape nor fitted with a made brim, and neither lined nor trimmed. Once any of those finishing steps occur, the article typically reclassifies as a finished hat under a different heading.
Yes — wool or fur-felt forms, synthetic-felt forms, and blended-felt forms may fall under different tariff subheadings depending on the predominant fiber. Importers should verify the felt's fiber content with the manufacturer before filing entry documents.
