Wool Blend Women's Ensemble Suit
This women's ensemble consists of a tailored jacket and matching skirt made from a wool-blend fabric, put up for retail sale. It qualifies as an ensemble under heading 6204 because it comprises an upper body garment and a lower body garment of identical fabric construction, color, and style, not meeting the stricter suit definition. The wool content subjects it to restraints (435).

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If synthetic fiber dominant (over 50%)
Shifts to man-made fiber ensemble subheading when wool content is minimal, escaping wool restraints.
If designed as track suit with elastic cuffs
Track suits fall under heading 6211 for special garments, not Chapter 62 ensembles.
If sold as individual pieces, not retail set
Separate jacket and skirt classify individually under other 6204 provisions without ensemble criteria.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify wool fiber content exceeds thresholds triggering restraint (435); provide lab test certificates to Customs
• Ensure ensemble components are packaged together for retail sale with matching fabric swatches for classification proof
• Avoid misclassification as separate garments by documenting set presentation; common pitfall is splitting for lower duties
