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, skirts, trousers, etc., but excludes knitted or crocheted garments (Chapter 61) as well as quilted products, medical garments, etc. Chapter 62 is one of the most important chapters in garment classification, with a wide range of goods; classification requires close attention to weaving method, gender, style, and other factors. Heading 6204 covers women's suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (excluding swimwear), etc. All garments under this heading are woven women's wear, further subdivided according to specific style and material. Classification requires distinguishing between suits and separate garments, as well as the impact of different materials (such as wool, cotton, man-made fibers, etc.) on subheadings. Code 620411 is a 6-digit subheading. The first 2 digits '62' represent Chapter 62 (garments and clothing accessories not knitted or crocheted); digits 3-4 '04' represent heading 6204 (women's suits, ensembles, jackets, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts); digits 5-6 '11' represent subheading 6204.11, specifically 'Women's suits of wool or fine animal hair'. Among these, '11' under 6204 specifically refers to suits of wool or fine animal hair, distinguishing them from suits of other materials (such as cotton, synthetic fibers, etc.). The goods are women's suits, made of wool or fine animal hair, woven, meeting the description of heading 6204. Because the material is wool or fine animal hair, they are classified under subheading 6204.11, rather than subheadings for other materials (such as 6204.12 of cotton, 6204.13 of synthetic fibers, etc.). At the same time, attention must be paid to the definition of a suit: it must consist of a jacket and trousers (or skirt), and the two must match in material, style, color, etc.; otherwise, they may be classified as separate garments.

🎯 Classification Logic
Core basis for classification: 1. The garment is woven (not knitted or crocheted); 2. Gender is women's; 3. Style is a suit (jacket and trousers or skirt matching); 4. Material is wool or fine animal hair. Only when all the above conditions are met can it be classified under 620411. If the material is other (such as cotton, man-made fibers), it is classified under 620412-620419; if it is a separate jacket or trousers, it is classified under other subheadings of 6204. 620412 Women's suits of cotton: Material is cotton, not wool or fine animal hair. Classification should be based on fabric composition; cotton is classified under 620412, wool under 620411. 620413 Women's suits of synthetic fibers: Material is synthetic fibers, such as polyester, nylon, etc. The difference from wool suits lies in fiber composition; a fiber composition test report is required. 620419 Women's suits of other textile materials: Material is other textile materials (such as silk, linen, etc.), not including wool or fine animal hair. If blended, classify according to the predominant component. 620421 Women's ensembles of wool or fine animal hair: Ensembles are non-suit styles, such as jacket and trousers not formally matching, while suits must have formal suit characteristics. Is it woven? Is it women's? Is it a suit? Is it of wool or fine animal hair? Is it a set (jacket + trousers/skirt)?
