RE: The tariff classification of men's knit pajamas from Turkey.
Dear Mr. Falce:
In your letter dated February 16, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
Style number 1876 is a pair of men's pajamas constructed from
100 percent cotton, finely knit fabric. The pajamas consist of a
Henley style top and a pair of long pants. The top has a partial
front opening with three button closures; long sleeves with rib
knit cuffs; an embroidered logo on the left chest; and a curved
hemmed bottom. The pants have an elasticized tunnel waistband; a
fly front opening; and rib knit cuffs at the ankles. You have
indicated in your correspondence that Style 1876 will be imported
in sizes S,M,L,XL and will be imported, packaged and sold as a set.
The applicable subheading for Style number 1876 will be
6107.21.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for: men's or boys' pajamas, knitted or
crocheted: of cotton: men's. The duty rate will be 9.4 percent ad
valorem.
Style number 1876 falls within textile category designation
351. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of
Turkey are subject to visa requirements and quota restraints.
The designated textile and apparel category may be subdivided
into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the
subject merchandise may be affected. Since part categories are the
result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to
frequent renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most current
information available, we suggest that you check, close to the time
of shipment, the Status Report On Current Import Quotas (Restraint
Levels), an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is
available for inspection at your local Customs office.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177
of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have already been filed, this ruling should be brought to
the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
