Dear Mr. Ponce Fantauzzi:

In your letter dated June 15, 2016, you requested a tariff classification ruling. Two samples accompanied your ruling.

The submitted samples are identified as bale net wrap, said to be of polyethylene. The net wrap is an open-work fabric, warp knit from strip of approximately 1 millimeter in width, in a variety of colors, including white. This strip meets the dimensional requirements of textile strip contained in Section XI, Legal Note 1(g) of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). According to the information provided previously, with this request, and subsequent contact, this net wrap will be imported on rolls, in a width of 1.22 meters and a length of 3000 meters, weighing 10.5 grams per square meter. It is designed to be used for wrapping around bales of silage, hay and straw.

The applicable subheading for this bale net wrap will be 6005.90.9000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for warp knit fabrics (including those made on galloon knitting machines), other than those of headings 6001 to 6004: other: other. The rate of duty will be 10% ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at https://hts.usitc.gov/current.

This ruling is being issued under the assumption that the subject goods, in their condition as imported into the United States, conform to the facts and the description as set forth both in the ruling request and in this ruling. In the event that the facts or merchandise are modified in any way, you should bring this to the attention of Customs and you should resubmit for a new ruling in accordance with 19 CFR 177.2.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
