BTI (Binding Tariff Information) is an official EU customs decision confirming the classification of goods. Valid for 3 years, binding across all EU member states.

Classification of CN code 620443

CN code 620443 covers women's and girls' dresses of synthetic fibers, other than knitted or crocheted. Synthetic fibers include polyester, polyamide, and acrylic. Polyester dresses are among the most popular items in women's clothing trade due to crease resistance, easy care, and affordability. Classification requires the synthetic fiber to be the predominant fiber by weight. Dresses from polyester-viscose blends where polyester predominates are classified under this code. The product must be woven - knitted synthetic dresses are classified under Chapter 61. A dress is a one-piece garment covering the body from the shoulders at least to the knees.

Safety requirements and regulations

Synthetic fiber dresses are subject to labeling requirements of Regulation (EU) No 1007/2011. REACH requirements apply to disperse dyes for polyester, PFAS substances in finishes, and formaldehyde. Metal components must comply with nickel limits. Printing on synthetic fabrics may use pigments and sublimation dyes subject to control. The GPSR requires traceability and risk assessment. Girls' dresses face stricter mechanical safety requirements for drawstrings, ribbons, and small decorative elements.

Import and trade

Synthetic fiber dresses imported into the EU originate mainly from China, Vietnam, Bangladesh, and Turkey. China dominates polyester dress exports. Origin rules require double transformation. Customs documentation must describe the product as a dress with fiber composition. Customs authorities may verify fiber content. Tariff preferences depend on the country of origin - EVFTA for Vietnam, EBA for Bangladesh, customs union for Turkey.

Synthetic fibres in dresses - polyester vs polyamide

CN 6204 43 covers dresses from synthetic fibres such as polyester, polyamide (nylon) and acrylic. Polyester dominates global womenswear production due to low cost and easy care. The key classification distinction is between synthetic fibres (from synthetic polymers) and artificial fibres (from cellulose). A viscose dress falls under CN 6204 44 instead. Importers should hold a fibre composition declaration supported by laboratory testing per EN ISO 1833 to ensure correct tariff classification.

Frequently asked questions

Is a polyester dress imitating silk classified under 620443?
Yes. Classification is based on actual fiber composition, not material appearance. A dress from polyester fabric imitating silk is a synthetic fiber product classified under 620443, regardless of visual fabric characteristics.
How is a polyester-viscose blend dress classified?
The predominant fiber by weight determines classification. With 55 percent polyester, 45 percent viscose - code 620443. If viscose predominates - code 620444 or 620449, depending on the artificial fiber type. The label must state each fiber's share.
Is a polyamide (nylon) dress classified under 620443?
Yes. Polyamide (nylon) is a synthetic fiber. A dress from woven nylon fabric where polyamide is the predominant fiber by weight is classified under 620443. The label must state the polyamide percentage.
Does a polyester-elastane dress fall under CN 6204 43?
Yes, a dress of polyester fabric with added elastane is classified under CN 6204 43, provided polyester is the predominant fibre by weight. Elastane as a minor component does not alter the tariff classification.
