Heading 6104 includes women's or girls' suits, ensembles, jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear), knitted or crocheted. Among these, 'suit' means a set consisting of two or three pieces, made of the same fabric, matching in style, intended for formal or semi-formal occasions.

The chapters are different, regulatory conditions and tax rates may differ, and the weaving method must be accurately distinguished when declaring. If the jacket and trousers in a suit are of different materials, how should it be classified? If the jacket and trousers are of different materials, they cannot be classified as a suit set and should be classified separately. For example, a cotton knitted jacket is classified under 6104, and man-made fiber knitted trousers under 6104, but they must be declared separately. How should the composition content be filled in when declaring? All fiber components and percentages should be filled in, such as '60% cotton, 40% polyester'. If cotton content is the highest but does not exceed 50%, it may be classified under man-made fiber subheading. What is the export tax rebate rate for 610412?
