Notes:
1.This Chapter applies only to made up articles of knitted or crocheted articles (other than those of heading No.62.12).
2.This Chapter does not cover:
a)Worn clothing or other worn articles of heading No.63.09; or
b)Orthopaedic appliances, surgical belts, trusses or the like (heading No.90.21).
3.For the purposes of headings Nos.62.03 and 62.04:
a) The term 'suit' means a set of garments composed of two or three pieces made up, in respect of their outer surface, in identical fabric and comprising:
- one suit coat or jacket the outer shell of which, exclusive of sleeves, consists of four or more panels, designed to cover the upper part of the body,possibly with a tailored waistcoat in addition whose front is made from the same fabric as the other surface of the other components of the set and whose back is made from the same fabric as the lining of the suit coat or jacket; and
- one government designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, breeches or shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt, having neither braces nor bibs
All of the components of a 'suit' must be of the same fabric construction, colour and composition; they must also be of the same style and of corresponding or compatible size. However, these components may have piping (a strip of fabric sewn into the seam) in a different fabric. If several separate components to cover the lower part of the body are presented together (for exam- ple, two pairs of trousers or trousers and shorts, or a skirt or divided skirt and trousers), the constituent lower part shall be one pair of trousers or, in the case of women’s or girls' suits, the skirt or divided skirt, the other garments being considered separately.
The term 'suit' includes the following sets of garments, whether or not they fulfil all the above conditions:
- morning dress, comprising a plain jacket (cutaway) with rounded tails hanging well down at the back and striped trousers;
- evening dress (tailcoat), generally made of black fabric, the jacket of which is relatively short at the front, does not close and has narrow skirts cut in at the hips and hanging down behind;
- dinner jacket suits, in which the jacket is similar in style to an ordinary jacket (though perhaps revealing more of the shirt front), but has shiny silk or imitation silk lapels.
b)The term 'ensemble' means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading No.62.07 or 62.08) composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising:
- one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of waist-coats which may also form a second upper garment, and
- one or two different garments, designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (othen than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt.
All of the components of an ensemble must be of the same fabric construction, style, colour and composition; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size. The term 'ensemble' does not apply to track suits or ski suits, of heading No. 62.11.
4.For the purposes of heading No. 62.09:
a)The expression 'babies' garments and clothing accessories' means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86cm; it also covers babies’ napkins;
b) Articles which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading No. 62.09 and in other headings of this Chapter are to be classified in heading No.62.09.
5. Garments which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading No. 62.10 and in other headings of this Chapter, excluding heading No. 62.09, are to be classified in heading No. 62.10.
6.For the purposes of heading No. 62.11, 'ski suits' means garments or sets of garments which, by their general appearance and texture, are identifiable as intended to be worn principally for skiing (cross-country or alpine). They consist either of:
a) a 'ski overall', that is, a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper and the lower parts of the body; in addition to sleeves and a collar the ski overall may have pockets or footstraps; or
b)a 'ski ensemble', that is, a set of garments composed of two or three pieces, put up for retailsale and comprising:
- one garment such as an anorak, wind-cheater, wind-jacket or similar article, closed by a slide fastener (zipper), possibly with a waistcoat in addition; and
- one pair of trousers whether or not extending above waist-level, one pair of breeches or one bib and brace overall.
The "ski ensemble" may also consist of an overall similar to the one mentioned in paragraph a) above and a type of padded, sleeveless jacket worn over the overall. All the components of a "ski ensemble" must be made up in a fabric of the same texture, style and composition whether or not of the same colour; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size.
7.Scarves and articles of the scarf type, square or approximately square, of which no side exceeds 60cm, are to be classified as handkerchiefs (heading No. 62.13). Handkerchiefs of which any side exceeds 60 cm are to be classified in heading No.62.14.
8.Garments of this Chapter designed for left over right closure at the front shall be regarded as men’s or boys’ garments, and those designed for right over left closure at the front as women’s or girls’ garments. These provisions do not apply where the cut of the garment cleary indicates that it is designed for one or other of the sexes. Garments which cannot be identified as either or boys’ garments or as women’s or girls’ garments men’s are to be classified in the headings covering women’s or girls’ garments.
9.Articles of this Chapter may be made of metal thread.

Note:
1.In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:
a)Bars and rods
Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.
b)Profiles
Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.
c)Wire
Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including ‘flattened circles’ and ‘modified rectangles’, of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including ‘modified rectangular’) cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.
d)Plates, sheets, strip and foil
Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading No. 76.01), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section with or without rounded corners (including ‘modified rectangles’ of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform thickness which are:
- Of rectangular (including square)shape with a thickness not exceeding one-tenth of the width.
- Of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any size, provided that they do not assume the character of articles or products of other headings.
Headings Nos. 76.06 and 76.07 apply, interalia, to plates, sheets, strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.
e)Tubes and pipes
Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness.
Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners rounded along their whole length, are also to be considered as tubes and pipes provided the inner and outer cross-sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the foregoing cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded, drilled, waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars or rings.
Subheading Notes
1.In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:
a)Aluminium, not alloyed
Metal containing by weight at least 99 % of aluminium, provided that the content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit speci- fied in the following table:
b) Aluminium alloys
Metallic substances in which aluminium predominates by weight over each of the other elements, provided that:
1)the content by weight of at least one of the other elements or of iron plus silicon taken together is greater than the limit specified in the foregoing table; or
2)the total content by weight of such other elements exceeds 1 %.
