HS Code for Boys' wool suit

A boys' wool suit is classified under HS code 6203.11, which covers men's or boys' suits made of wool or fine animal hair. For the purposes of the Harmonized System, a "suit" is defined as a set of garments composed of two or three pieces made up in the same fabric. This includes a suit coat or jacket and a pair of trousers, breeches, or shorts. The classification 6203.11 specifically applies to woven garments; if the suit were knitted or crocheted, it would fall under Chapter 61. Wool and fine animal hair (such as cashmere or mohair) are prioritized in this subheading. The construction must meet the legal notes of Section XI, ensuring the outer shell is predominantly wool. This classification is essential for customs as wool products often carry different duty rates compared to synthetic or cotton blends.

Products Included

• Boys' two-piece woven wool suits
• Boys' three-piece wool suits with waistcoats
• Boys' cashmere blend suits (predominantly cashmere)
• Boys' formal wool tuxedos
• Boys' wool dress suits for ceremonies

Common Misclassification

Common errors include using HS code 6203.12, which is for suits made of synthetic fibers, or 6203.19, which covers other textile materials like cotton or linen. Another significant misclassification is 6103.10, which is only for knitted suits. If the jacket and trousers are not made of the same fabric or are sold separately without being a matching set, they cannot be classified as a suit and must be entered under their respective codes for jackets (6203.31) and trousers (6203.41).
