How customs classifies midi dresses
HS 6204.4 / 6104.4 'Dresses'. Dress = one-piece garment covering the body from shoulders to (at least) below the hip and worn as the outer garment; the WCO EN for 6204 refers back to the EN for 6104 and gives no further definition of 'dresses' (CBP HQ 964870), so length and 'worn alone as outerwear' are the working tests. Midi (mid-calf) is above-the-knee-or-longer stand-alone outerwear: same codes as maxi. A shirt-style garment that stops at mid-thigh and needs trousers/leggings is a blouse (6206/6106), not a dress (see kurti row; CBP NY K84739). Fabric: cotton. CONSTRUCTION: woven -> Chapter 62 (not knitted or crocheted). Blends: classify by the fibre predominating by weight (Section XI Subheading Note 2(A) -> Note 2 to Section XI; tie = heading last in numerical order).
Knitted or woven decides the chapter: knitted and crocheted garments are Chapter 61, woven garments Chapter 62. For blends, the fibre that is largest by weight decides (Section XI, Subheading Note 2).
Import duty
The duty on midi dresses depends on the country and on whether you claim a trade-agreement rate for goods from India. Rates are re-checked against official tariffs every day: United States, United Kingdom, EU (Germany), Australia, Canada and all 60 countries.
