Overview
This HTS classification, 6204.19.80.40, specifically covers waistcoats that are imported as integral parts of suits, where the overall suit is composed of textile materials other than cotton and is subject to cotton restraints. These waistcoats, often referred to as vests, are designed to be worn as a component of a three-piece suit, complementing the jacket and trousers or skirt. Their inclusion under this code signifies they are not imported as standalone garments but rather as essential elements of a coordinated suit ensemble.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. While 6204.19.80.10 classifies the jackets within such suits, and 6204.19.80.20 covers skirts and divided skirts when part of a suit, and 6204.19.80.30 encompasses trousers, breeches, and shorts in a suit context, this specific code isolates the waistcoat. The defining characteristic for 6204.19.80.40 is the garment type itself – the waistcoat – when imported as part of a suit meeting the criteria of "other textile materials" and "subject to cotton restraints."
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification at this level is definitive for waistcoats imported as components of suits falling under the specified broader categories. Proper identification relies on the garment's function as a waistcoat within a suit and confirmation that the suit's textile composition and any applicable restraint provisions align with this classification.
