HS code for Ski suit: 6211.20
Ski suits, (not knitted or crocheted).
Classification of ski suit under HS 6211.20
The classification of ski suits under HS code 6211.20 is governed by the specific definitions provided in the Legal Notes to Chapter 62. According to Note 7 to Chapter 62, 'ski suits' means garments or sets of garments which, by their general appearance and texture, are identifiable as intended to be worn principally for skiing. They consist of either a 'ski overall' (a one-piece garment) or a 'ski ensemble' (a set of two or three garments put up for retail sale). This code specifically applies to garments that are not knitted or crocheted; if the suit were knitted, it would fall under heading 6112. The fabric must be woven, and the garments are typically treated for water resistance and thermal insulation. To qualify as an ensemble under 6211.20, the components must be of the same size (or matching sizes) and be designed to be worn together. This classification is a 'special' provision that overrides the general classification of jackets and trousers when they meet the strict definition of a set intended for skiing.

Codes often confused with 6211.20
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is using 6112.20, which is the code for knitted or crocheted ski suits. Another frequent error involves classifying the jacket and trousers separately under 6201 (men's jackets) or 6202 (women's jackets) and 6203/6204 (trousers). If the items are sold together as a coordinated set for skiing, they must stay in 6211.20.

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).
