6204.19.40.00 - Containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste (744)

This HTS classification covers women's or girls' suits specifically made from textile materials other than artificial fibers. These garments are designed as matching sets, typically including a jacket and either trousers, a skirt, or divided skirt, intended for formal or semi-formal wear. The defining characteristic of this category is its material composition, which is not primarily artificial fibers.

Within the "Of other textile materials" subdivision (6204.19), this specific code (6204.19.40) distinguishes itself from other material types by focusing on suits containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste. This differentiates it from potential sibling categories that might cover suits made from other natural fibers (like cotton or wool) or synthetic blends not meeting the silk threshold.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification is precisely defined by the material content, making the determination of 70% or more silk or silk waste the key determinant for inclusion under 6204.19.40.00. This ensures that garments meeting these stringent silk requirements are correctly identified and accounted for.
