Understanding HS Codes: A Quick Guide

Important Considerations & Recommendations:
- Material Composition: Crucially, the correct HS code depends on the exact material composition of each jumpsuit. Double-check the fabric content labels. Small variations can lead to different classifications and duty rates.
- "Ensemble" Definition: If the jumpsuit is sold as a set (e.g., with a belt or jacket), it will likely fall under the 6204 codes. If sold as a single garment, the 6114 codes are more appropriate.
- Country of Origin: The country of origin affects duty rates and potential trade agreements.
- Post-April 2, 2025 Duties: Be prepared for the 30% additional duty on many of these codes.
- Valuation: The declared value of the goods is critical for duty calculation.
- Certificates: Depending on the material composition (e.g., wool content), you may need to provide certificates of origin or material composition.
- Cotton Restraints: For 6204.29.40.82, investigate the specific cotton restraint regulations applicable to your country.
To help me refine the classification further, could you please provide:
- Detailed fabric composition of each jumpsuit style.
- Is the jumpsuit sold as a set (ensemble) or as a single garment?
- The country of origin of the jumpsuits.
