Classification of men's synthetic ensemble under HS 6203.23
The classification of men's synthetic ensembles under HS code 6203.23 is determined by the construction of the garment and the material composition. According to the General Rules of Interpretation (GRI) and the Chapter 62 notes, an ensemble is defined as a set of garments composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale. For this specific code, the garments must be made of synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic, and must not be knitted or crocheted, meaning they are woven. The components typically include a jacket or blazer and a pair of trousers, breeches, or shorts. The technical requirement is that all components must be of the same fabric construction, style, and color, and must be of corresponding or compatible size. If the components are sold separately or do not meet the strict identical fabric criteria, they must be classified individually under their respective headings. This classification ensures that coordinated outfits are taxed and regulated as a single unit rather than separate items, provided they meet the legal definition of an ensemble. Synthetic fibers are defined as those made from polymers of organic monomers, produced by polymerization. The woven nature of these garments is characterized by the interlacing of vertical and horizontal threads, providing a stable and durable structure suitable for formal and semi-formal wear.

Codes often confused with 6203.23
Common mistake. A frequent error is confusing ensembles with suits under 6203.12. Suits have specific tailoring requirements for the jacket's outer shell. Another common mistake is classifying knitted ensembles here; those belong under 6103.23. Additionally, if the garments are not made of identical fabric, they must be split into 6203.33 for jackets and 6203.43 for trousers.

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).
