Sourcing this category from India
Chapter 62 covers woven (not knitted) apparel and clothing accessories — a major Indian export. Shirts, dresses, trousers and ethnic wear from clusters such as Delhi-NCR, Mumbai and Bengaluru ship worldwide. Subheadings separate garments by type and gender, with woven construction distinguishing this chapter from its knitted counterpart in Chapter 61.
How to read this code
62 is the two-digit HS chapter for apparel and clothing accessories. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many textiles & textile articles lines — check our import guides for your market.
