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).

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
