HS Code for Girls' synthetic knit suit
The HS code 6104.13 is applied to girls' suits made of synthetic fibers that are knitted or crocheted. In the context of the Harmonized System, a "suit" has a very specific legal definition that is stricter than the common usage of the word. A suit must consist of a jacket or blazer (the upper garment) and a matching lower garment (trousers, breeches, shorts, a skirt, or a divided skirt). Both pieces must be of the same fabric construction, color, and composition. They must also be of corresponding or compatible size. Because this code falls under Chapter 61, the garments must be knitted. Synthetic fibers like polyester or nylon must predominate by weight. This classification is used for formal or professional-style sets that are knitted, offering more flexibility than woven suits while maintaining a coordinated appearance. Proper classification ensures compliance with textile quotas and accurate duty assessment.

Common Misclassification
A common error is confusing a suit (6104.13) with an ensemble (6104.23). While both are matching sets, a suit must have a specific type of jacket or blazer as the upper garment. If the upper garment is a vest, a sweater, or a shirt, the set is classified as an ensemble. Another misclassification occurs with woven suits, which belong under 6204.13. Additionally, if the components of the suit are not packaged together for retail sale or are made of different materials (e.g., a synthetic jacket with a cotton skirt), they cannot be classified under 6104.13 and must be entered as separate items.
