HS code 6505.00 · Chapter 65

Hats and other headgear, knitted or from textile

Hats, beanies, caps and other headgear, knitted/crocheted or made up from textile fabric.

Current duty on this code

Base most-favoured-nation duty, pulled from the official tariff schedule when the destination publishes one. It does not include country-specific additional tariffs — for a US import those (Section 301, the 2025 reciprocal measures) can dwarf the base rate, and Kustaro shows them separately on a real classification.
