General

1. For the classification, within headings, of articles composed of two or more textile materials, see the general explanatory note to this section.

2. For the classification of garments put up in sets for retail sale, see note 14 to this section.

3. When a component of a suit or an ensemble of heading 6103 or 6104 has applied trimmings or decorations which are not found on the other component or components, all these garments remain classified as suits or ensembles as long as these trimmings or decorations are of minor importance and are limited to one or two places on the garment (for example, on the collar and the sleeve ends or on the lapels and pockets).

However, when these decorations are produced during the knitting of the garment, classification as suits or ensembles is excluded, except when the decoration is a logo or other similar symbol.

4. Garments covering the upper part of the body, in distinction to garments covering the lower part of the body and to garments covering the entire body (for example, overcoats, dresses), are garments that:

• from their objective characteristics (style, cut etc.) are clearly meant to be worn as, for example, anoraks, (suit) jackets and uppers of ensembles, shirts and blouses, uppers of pyjamas, pullovers, cardigans and waistcoats, upper parts of ski suits etc. (unless otherwise specified, these garments need not completely cover the upper part of the body), and
• do not extend below the mid-thigh area. However, mainly due to fashion, some parts of these garments can extend down below mid-thigh area (for example, fancy fashionable fringes, but also the traditional tails of tailcoats) and are negligible as far as the length of the garment is concerned, because they do not change the function of these garments, which is to cover the upper part of the body.
