Classification of girls' cotton ensemble under HS 6204.22
The classification for a girls' cotton ensemble falls under HS code 6204.22. According to the General Rules for the Interpretation of the Harmonized System, an "ensemble" is a set of garments (other than suits) composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale together. For girls, this typically includes a combination of a top (like a blouse or waistcoat) and a bottom (like trousers, shorts, or a skirt). Because these items are woven rather than knitted, they are placed in Chapter 62. Heading 6204 specifically addresses women's and girls' woven apparel, and subheading 6204.22 identifies the material as cotton. It is essential that all components of the ensemble are of the same fabric construction, style, and color, and are of corresponding or compatible size. If the items are not sold as a set or are made of different fabrics, they must be classified individually under their respective codes.

Codes often confused with 6204.22
Common mistake. A frequent mistake is classifying these sets under 6104.22, which is for knitted cotton ensembles. If the set is made of jersey or sweatshirt material, it belongs in Chapter 61. Another misclassification is 6204.12, which is for cotton suits. Suits have a more formal construction (like a tailored jacket) compared to ensembles. Additionally, if the components are sold separately, they cannot be classified as an ensemble and must be declared under codes like 6206 (blouses) or 6204.52 (skirts).

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries marked * did not, so their figures add up what other countries recorded trading with them, and their exports are valued at buyers' CIF prices. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
