Polyester Suit-Type Jacket from Japan

A tailored women's suit-type jacket made primarily from artificial fibers like polyester, featuring a structured silhouette with notched lapels and matching lining. It qualifies under HTS 6204.39.30 as a blazer-style garment of artificial textile materials, not part of a full suit ensemble. This classification applies to made-up woven articles excluding knitted fabrics.

Import Tips

• Verify fiber content exceeds 70% artificial fibers via lab tests to confirm classification under 6204.39.30 and avoid reclassification to cotton or wool headings

• Include detailed commercial invoices specifying 'suit-type jacket' and woven construction to prevent customs disputes on garment type

• Check for prohibited below-waist pockets or ribbed waistbands, as these could shift to Chapter 62 men's shirts or other categories
