Description

Overview

This HTS category, 6103, encompasses a specific range of men's and boys' apparel that are knitted or crocheted, designed to be worn as coordinated outfits or as individual components of suit-like attire. The core focus is on garments with a structured, tailored appearance, distinguishing them from more casual knitwear. This includes complete suits, coordinated ensembles, individual suit-type jackets, blazers, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, and shorts, provided they are not designed for aquatic activities. The defining characteristic for inclusion here is the method of construction (knitted or crocheted) and the intended sartorial purpose.

When differentiating this category from its siblings at the HTS Database Root level, it is crucial to note the fundamental divergence in product type. While siblings may cover live animals, agricultural products, or other manufactured goods, Chapter 61, and specifically 6103, is dedicated exclusively to knitted or crocheted articles of apparel. This means any item that is not apparel, or is not made by knitting or crocheting, would fall under a completely different HTS chapter and would not be considered a sibling to 6103.

Within HTS code 6103, further detailed classification is achieved through its subcategories. These subdivisions allow for more precise identification based on the specific type of garment. For instance, separate lines exist for complete "Suits" (6103.10), allowing for distinctions between two-piece and three-piece suits. Other subcategories break down "Ensembles," "Suit-type jackets and blazers," and the broader category of "Trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts." This hierarchical structure ensures that customs officials can accurately categorize items based on their specific form and function, facilitating proper duty assessment and trade statistics.
