Chapter 62 covers garments and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted, i.e., woven garments. This chapter includes men's, women's and children's coats, suits, shirts, trousers, skirts, etc., but excludes knitted or crocheted garments (Chapter 61) as well as quilted products, leather garments, etc. Goods of this chapter are usually made of woven fabrics, and their classification depends on style, gender, fabric type and degree of processing. Heading 6203 covers men's or boys' suits, ensembles, jackets, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear). Among these, a suit means a set of garments composed of a jacket and a pair of trousers (or a jacket and a skirt) made of the same fabric, and the jacket must have specific style characteristics (such as full front opening, sleeves, collar, etc.). Under this heading, further subheadings are divided according to fibre type. Code 620319 is a 6-digit subheading. The first 2 digits "62" represent Chapter 62 (garments and clothing accessories, not knitted or crocheted). Digits 3-4 "03" represent heading 6203 (men's suits, ensembles, jackets, trousers, etc.). Digits 5-6 "19" represent subheading 6203.19, i.e., men's suits of "other textile materials". Under 6203.1, the division is first by material: 6203.11 for wool or fine animal hair, 6203.12 for synthetic fibres, and 6203.19 for other textile materials (such as cotton, flax, regenerated fibres, etc.). Therefore, 620319 specifically refers to men's suits made of textile materials other than wool/fine animal hair and synthetic fibres. The goods are men's suits, not knitted, so they fall under Chapter 62. Since they are men's suits, they should be classified under heading 6203 rather than 6204 (women's). Under subheading 6203.1, the material is neither wool/fine animal hair (6203.11) nor synthetic fibres (6203.12), so it falls under 6203.19 "of other textile materials". If knitted, it would fall under 6103; if women's, under 6204; if a single jacket, under 6203.3, so this code is accurate.

Product name: The Chinese and foreign-language names of the declared goods should accurately describe them as men's suits, avoiding vague generic terms. Brand type: Fill in the brand attribute, such as no brand, domestic independent brand, foreign brand (OEM production), etc. Export preference status: Fill in according to the actual trade situation; for example, exports to FTA countries may enjoy preferences and require a certificate of origin. Weaving method: Specify woven (woven fabric) to distinguish it from knitted or crocheted, which is key to classification under Chapter 62. Style: Describe the suit style in detail, such as the jacket being suit-style and the trousers being long trousers, and sold as a set in packaging. Material composition: Declare the specific fibre composition and content of the fabric, such as 55% cotton and 45% flax, to determine the subheading. Brand: Fill in the actual brand name (Chinese and foreign language); if no brand, fill in "none". Article number: Fill in the product article number designated by the manufacturer or exporter for easy identification. Customs declaration example: Product name: Men's woven suit (two-piece set) Brand type: Foreign brand (OEM production) Export preference status: Exported to South Korea, preference available Weaving method: Woven Style: Jacket is suit-style, full front opening, with collar and sleeves; trousers are long trousers, packaged as a set Material composition: 60% cotton, 40% flax Brand: ABC Article number: MS2024-01 Specification/model: 170/92A Declaration elements confirmed correct. Mistakenly classifying knitted men's suits under 620319, when they should actually be classified under 6103. Failing to distinguish men's from women's; women's suits should be classified under 6204. Material composition declared not specifically, making it impossible to determine whether it belongs to "other textile materials". Ignoring the set packaging requirement; a single jacket or pair of trousers should be classified under other subheadings.

Core basis for classification: 1) The weaving method must be woven (woven fabric), not knitted or crocheted; 2) The goods must be men's suits, i.e., a jacket and trousers as a set, and the jacket must have suit characteristics (full front opening, collar, sleeves, etc.); 3) The fabric fibre composition must not be wool/fine animal hair or synthetic fibres, otherwise it would be classified under 6203.11 or 6203.12; 4) It must be men's; women's falls under 6204. Reference should also be made to the definition of "suit" in the Explanatory Notes to the Harmonized System. 620311 Men's suits of wool or fine animal hair: The material is wool or fine animal hair, whereas 620319 is other textile materials (such as cotton, flax, regenerated fibres, etc.). 620312 Men's suits of synthetic fibres: The material is synthetic fibres (such as polyester, nylon, etc.), whereas 620319 is other textile materials. 620411 Women's suits of wool or fine animal hair: The gender is women's, whereas 620319 is men's, and the material is also different. 610319 Knitted men's suits of other textile materials: The weaving method is knitted, whereas 620319 is woven. 620333 Men's jackets of synthetic fibres: It is only a jacket, not a suit set, and the material is synthetic fibres. Is it woven (woven fabric)? Is it men's? Is it a suit set? Is the material neither wool/fine animal hair nor synthetic fibres? Have detailed fibre composition and content been provided?

How can it be determined whether a set of garments belongs to HS code 620319 as a suit? It must simultaneously satisfy: 1) woven fabric; 2) men's; 3) jacket and trousers as a set, and the jacket is suit-style (full front opening, collar, sleeves); 4) the fabric is neither wool/fine animal hair nor synthetic fibres. If any condition is missing, it is classified under another code. If the suit fabric is a cotton and polyester blend, how should it be classified? According to the General Rules for the Interpretation of the Harmonized System, if the synthetic fibre content exceeds 50%, it is usually classified as of synthetic fibres under 620312; if the cotton content exceeds 50%, it is classified as of other textile materials under 620319. The proportions of each component must be accurately declared. Which code should knitted men's suits be classified under? Knitted men's suits should be classified under Chapter 61, specifically 6103.19 (knitted men's suits of other textile materials). Note that distinguishing knitted from woven is key to classification. Can women's suits be classified under 620319? No. 620319 applies only to men's suits; women's suits should be classified under the corresponding subheadings under 6204, such as 620411 (of wool), 620412 (of cotton), 620413 (of synthetic fibres), etc. How should the material composition be filled in during declaration? The specific fibre names and percentage contents of the fabric should be filled in, such as "60% cotton, 40% flax". Avoid filling in only "blended" or "other textile materials", otherwise it may lead to classification disputes or rejection. If the jacket and trousers of a suit are packaged separately, can they be classified under 620319? No. A suit must be packaged and sold as a set. If the jacket and trousers are packaged separately or sold individually, they should be classified separately: the jacket under 6203.3 and the trousers under 6203.4. How can the import tariff rate for 620319 be checked? You can log on to the official website of the General Administration of Customs of China or use the "Customs Import and Export Tariff of China" to check, or obtain the latest tariff rates through a customs broker or international trade consultant. Note that tariff rates may change due to trade agreements, origin, and other factors. What are the main differences between 620319 and 620311, 620312? The main difference lies in the fabric material: 620311 is of wool or fine animal hair, 620312 is of synthetic fibres, and 620319 is of other textile materials (such as cotton, flax, regenerated fibres, etc.). Classification should be determined according to the actual composition.
