Chapter 62: Articles of apparel, not knitted

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 620412 when importing or exporting women's or girls' suits made of cotton that are not knitted or crocheted. For example, a shipment of cotton blazers and trousers designed for office wear would fall under this code.

This code specifically covers tailored suits for women and girls, distinguishing them from other clothing items like casual dresses or skirts. If you're dealing with cotton suits, ensure they are not mixed with other materials, as that could change the classification.

In contrast, HS-6 620413 pertains to suits made of synthetic fibers. If your product is a polyester or blended fabric suit, you would need to use that code instead. Understanding these distinctions is crucial for correct tariff application.

When classifying your products, consider the fabric composition and intended use. For instance, a cotton suit designed for formal occasions is classified here, while a cotton summer dress would not.
