Ensembles, women's or girls', of synthetic fibres (not knitted or crocheted).
Classification of girls' synthetic ensemble under HS 6204.23
The classification of a girls' synthetic ensemble under HS code 6204.23 is determined by several specific criteria defined in the Harmonized System's Section XI notes. This code applies to garments that are not knitted or crocheted, meaning they are constructed through a weaving process. An ensemble is defined as a set of garments composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and designed to be worn together by the same person. For this specific code, the primary material must be synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic. The classification follows General Interpretative Rule (GRI) 1, which dictates that classification is determined by the terms of the headings and any relative section or chapter notes. Under Chapter 62, heading 6204 specifically covers women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts. Subheading 6204.23 is the specific destination for these items when they meet the definition of an ensemble and are made of synthetic materials.

Codes often confused with 6204.23
Common mistake. A frequent error is confusing HS code 6204.23 with 6104.23. The distinction lies entirely in the construction of the fabric; 6104.23 is reserved for knitted or crocheted ensembles, while 6204.23 is for woven items. Additionally, if the garments are not made of identical fabric or are not packaged together for retail sale, they may be classified individually under their respective codes (e.g., 6204.33 for jackets or 6204.63 for trousers) rather than as an ensemble. Another common confusion occurs with code 6204.13, which is for suits; suits require a specific type of jacket and matching bottom, whereas ensembles allow for more variety in the upper garment.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. 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).
