Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 6103 when importing men's or boys' knitted or crocheted apparel like suits, jackets, or trousers. For example, if you're shipping a batch of knitted blazers made from cotton, you would classify them under 610332.
When deciding between subheadings, consider the material of the garments. For instance, if your product is a knitted ensemble made from synthetic fibers, you should use 610323. If it’s made from cotton, then 610322 is the correct choice.
The distinction between jackets and trousers is also crucial. If you're importing knitted trousers made of wool, you would select 610341. However, if they are made from synthetic fibers, you should classify them under 610343.
