6204
Women's or girls' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear)
Analysis
Heading 6204 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule covers women's or girls' suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear). It divides into 25 six-digit subheadings and 86 eight-digit tariff lines, with 300 ten-digit statistical suffixes below them.
The spread of 28.6 percentage points between the cheapest and dearest lines makes misclassification expensive here. The highest rate, 28.6%, applies to 6204.63.11 (other: other) and 6204.63.90 (other: other).
4 of its 77 lines with a percentage rate are duty-free at the general rate (5%) and 73 are dutiable, from duty-free up to 28.6%. The median line pays 9.4%.
9 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 6204.63 (of synthetic fibers, 13 lines), 6204.69 (of other textile materials, 12 lines), 6204.62 (of cotton, 7 lines) and 6204.19 (of other textile materials, 4 lines).
