Sourcing women's woven wrap coats from China
Women's woven wrap coats from China carry a single UK duty rate of 12% across the selected lines, with no trade remedy recorded. Fibre content must be labelled for sale in Great Britain. Specify front overlap, belt position and lining allowance before approving production. Cambridge China Bridge sources women's woven wrap coats.
Duty, fabric and finished coat weight
Heading 6202 covers women's or girls' overcoats and related outerwear. This guide selects women's woven wrap coats, with overlapping fronts and a tie belt. Cotton and man-made fibre lines distinguish garments not exceeding 1 kg from those exceeding 1 kg. For the wider heading, see the women's woven trench coats guide.
Read from the UK Trade Tariff on 2 October 2026, the selected lines carry 12% duty from China, with no anti-dumping or countervailing duty and no suspension recorded. The tariff attaches cat and dog fur import and export controls and a seal-product import control. Cat and dog fur products are banned from import and export. Commercial seal imports require an exemption and a seal catch certificate; confirm eligibility and documents with your customs broker before ordering any seal trim from China.
Confirm the commodity code using the actual shell composition, garment construction and finished weight. Weigh a production sample with its belt rather than relying on an estimated fabric weight. Give the broker the fibre breakdown for blended fabrics and details of any coating or animal trim.

Specify the overlap, belt and drape
Specify shell fibre composition, weave, fabric weight, finish, lining and interlining. Agree chest, shoulder, sleeve and coat measurements with tolerances, plus front overlap when tied, belt length and width, belt-loop position and any internal fastening. Approve a sample worn over the intended clothing, checking that the fronts stay covered when sitting and reaching.
For sale in Great Britain, the label must show fibre content, including fur and other animal parts. Consumer products must be safe in normal or reasonably foreseeable use. Match label artwork to production materials, and check belt-loop attachment, concealed fastenings and exposed trim edges. Agree care instructions after assessing shrinkage, colour transfer and changes to drape under the proposed cleaning treatment.
Worked duty example
Illustrative example, not a quote: Illustrative order: 500 women's woven wool wrap coats under 6202 20 00 19, invoiced at £33,000 free on board, with £3,000 of freight and insurance to the UK. The customs value is £36,000. Duty at 12% is £4,320. Import VAT at 20% is charged on the customs value plus duty, £40,320, so it is £8,064. Import taxes total £12,384; a VAT-registered importer can usually reclaim the VAT, so the lasting cost is the £4,320 of duty. The import duty and VAT guide explains each step.
Inspection checklist
Fit and coverage: measure sampled sizes against the approved chart; tie the belt and check front overlap, sleeve reach, pocket access and lining movement when sitting.
Belt and fastenings: check belt length, matching fabric and colour, loop position, secure stitching and any internal button or tie; check that the belt lies flat.
Fabric and making: compare handle and drape with the approved sample; inspect lapel symmetry, seam puckering, hem balance, lining allowance and changes after agreed care.
Arrival condition: check fibre labels, size assortments, missing belts, shade differences, damp cartons and colour transfer to the lining. Set these checks in the inspection brief.

What goes wrong
A wrap coat can match the chest measurement yet open at the front because the overlap is too narrow or the belt loops sit above the intended waist. A tight lining can pull the fronts apart when the wearer reaches. Record overlap and lining allowance in the specification and assess production garments while worn.
Fabric substitution can change drape even when the colour looks right. Belts may twist, loops may tear away, and uneven pressing can distort lapels. Cleaning may shrink the shell differently from the lining. Compare treated production samples with the approved garment, and hold affected arrival stock for assessment.
