Classification of men's synthetic knit ensemble under HS 6103.23
The classification of men's synthetic knit ensembles under HS code 6103.23 is determined by the specific definitions provided in the Section XI notes of the Harmonized System. According to Chapter 61, Note 3(b), an ensemble is a set of garments composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and designed to cover the upper body and the lower body. For this specific subheading, the garments must be knitted or crocheted and the predominant textile material must be synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, or acrylic. The set typically includes a jacket or blazer as the upper garment, paired with trousers, breeches, shorts, or bib and brace overalls. It is essential that all components of the ensemble are of the same fabric construction, style, and color, and are of corresponding or compatible sizes. If these criteria are not met—for example, if the trousers are made of a different knit pattern than the jacket—the items must be classified individually under their respective headings rather than as an ensemble.

Codes often confused with 6103.23
Common mistake. This code is frequently confused with HS code 6103.10, which covers suits. While both are sets, a suit has a specific cut and construction intended for formal or professional wear, whereas an ensemble is more versatile. Another common error is using 6203.23, which is for woven ensembles; the distinction lies entirely in the fabric construction (knitted vs. woven). Additionally, if the garments are sold separately or do not match in fabric, they may be misclassified here instead of under 6103.43 for trousers or 6103.33 for jackets.

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).
