Reading code 6205

The first two digits (62) place this code in chapter 62 — Woven Apparel and Clothing. As a 4-digit heading it groups a whole product family; 6 and 8-digit codes underneath it get more specific. Remember: you can never invent a shorter code by truncating a longer one — only codes that exist in the official tariff are valid.

Shirts, trousers, suits, sarees, dresses, and all non-knitted garments — the woven half of the apparel trade.
