Last updated: July 2026 data

Slips and petticoats of knitted or crocheted textile fabrics for women and girls represent a narrower, specialty segment of the intimate apparel import market. Fiber content — most commonly man-made fiber or cotton — determines the applicable HTS subheading and duty rate. Importers should take care to distinguish slips from nightdresses (classified separately) based on the garment's primary function and construction, as CBP may challenge borderline articles.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the classification boundary between a knitted slip and a knitted nightdress?

Slips are undergarments worn beneath outer clothing, while nightdresses are sleepwear. CBP considers design, marketing, labeling, and construction when the distinction is unclear. A garment marketed and labeled as sleepwear will generally be classified as a nightdress even if it resembles a slip in construction.

Are there any labeling requirements specific to imported knitted slips and petticoats?

Yes. All textile apparel imported into the US must comply with the Textile Fiber Products Identification Act, requiring fiber content labels, country of origin marking, and manufacturer or importer identification. The FTC enforces these labeling rules, and non-compliant shipments can be detained at the port of entry.
