6103
Men's or boys' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear), knitted or crocheted
Analysis
Heading 6103 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers men's or boys' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear), knitted or crocheted. It divides into 12 six-digit subheadings and 31 eight-digit tariff lines, with 117 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 28.2 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 28.2%, applies to 6103.10.30 (of synthetic fibers: other (643)) and 6103.33.20 (of synthetic fibers: other (633)).
2 of its 20 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (10%) and 18 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 28.2%. The median line pays 11.9%.
11 of the lines carry specific or compound rates (per kilogram, per dozen and so on) rather than a percentage, so their burden depends on the unit value of the goods.
The largest subheadings are 6103.10 (suits, 8 lines), 6103.49 (of other textile materials, 4 lines), 6103.29 (of other textile materials, 3 lines) and 6103.39 (of other textile materials, 3 lines).
