Shirt HS codes in Pakistan: knitted, woven and gender lines

One word, four headings

These four headings name shirts or shirt-blouses in the official tariff. Two say knitted or crocheted. Two do not, and the tariff context for those is woven fabric. Each pair separates men's or boys' garments from women's or girls' garments.

Knitted candidates

Heading 61.05 covers men's or boys' shirts, and heading 61.06 covers women's or girls' blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses. Each heading splits by material only.

Woven candidates

Heading 62.05 covers men's or boys' shirts, and heading 62.06 covers women's or girls' blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses. The cotton and man-made fibre groups name Pakistani garment types such as Baluchi kameez, Kurta, Multani choli and Punjabi kameez, plus a residual "Other" line.

The same search also returns three lines from heading 61.09

A text search for shirts matches the word "shirts" inside heading 61.09, so these three rows appear too. Their heading text names t-shirts, singlets and other vests. Read the heading text and the material line, then confirm on the official tariff whether they fit your product.

Why one generic "shirts" code is unsafe

• Construction first. Knitted or crocheted garments and woven garments sit in different headings. The heading text marks the difference.
• Gender second. Each construction has a men's or boys' heading and a women's or girls' heading.
• Material third. Cotton, man-made fibres, silk, wool or fine animal hair and other textile materials have separate lines.
• Named garments need a check. Baluchi kameez, Kurta, Multani choli and Punjabi kameez have their own lines inside the cotton and man-made fibre groups.
• "Other" is a real line. A residual row is not a null result. It is a candidate that needs the same source check as any other row.
• Name searches over-match. The shirts query also returns heading 61.09 rows. Read the heading path in the result before you copy a code.

Look up candidates in the HS code finder

Each link opens the finder with the query filled in. The finder runs on the same FBR tariff data.

• shirts (product name, 32 candidates)
• 6205.2090 (men's cotton, Other)
• 6205.2020 (Kurta, men's cotton)
• 6206.3090 (women's cotton, Other)
• 6105.1000 (men's knitted, cotton)
• 6205 (browse the heading prefix)

Formatting note: the tariff stores codes as eight digits and displays them as dddd.dddd. The finder accepts both forms.

What this page does not claim

• It does not issue a binding classification, and it does not pick one line for all shirts.
• It shows no duty value and no sales-tax rate. Selecting a code does not establish a tax treatment.
• Every row is a candidate taken from the official tariff. Where two lines still fit your product, confirm the code with a customs agent or FBR before you file.
• Corrections: email [email protected].
