6204.12.00 - Of cotton

This HTS category, 6204.12.00, specifically covers women's or girls' suits where the primary textile material is cotton. A suit, in this context, refers to a coordinated outfit comprising at least two pieces, designed for women or girls, and intended to be worn as a formal or semi-formal ensemble. The defining characteristic of this classification is the predominant use of cotton in its construction.

It's important to distinguish this category from its siblings. While all fall under "Suits" within the broader classification for women's or girls' ensembles, 6204.12.00 is exclusively for cotton. Sibling categories include those made of wool or fine animal hair (6204.11.00.00), synthetic fibers (6204.13), and other textile materials (6204.19), each differentiated by their constituent fabric.

This classification has further subdivisions to account for the individual components that make up a cotton suit when imported as part of the ensemble. These subcategories, such as jackets (6204.12.00.10), skirts and divided skirts (6204.12.00.20), trousers, breeches, and shorts (6204.12.00.30), and waistcoats (6204.12.00.40), allow for more precise tracking and tariff application based on the specific garment pieces included within the coordinated suit.
