RE: The tariff classification of knit nylon gloves from China.
Dear Mr. Thayer:
In your letter dated October 9, 1990, you requested a
classification ruling. As requested your sample is being
returned.
Your submitted sample, style HBO6073, is a pair of knit 100%
nylon gloves with fourchettes. The glove has a screen printed
skeleton hand on the back of the hand. You state these gloves
will be sold separately, as an accessory for a halloween skeleton
costume.
The applicable subheading for style HBO6073, will be
6116.93.2021, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for gloves, mittens and mitts, knitted or
crocheted: other: of synthetic fibers: other: other with
fourchettes. The duty rate will be 19.8 percent ad valorem.
Style HBO6073 falls within textile category designation 631.
Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of
China are subject to quota restraints and visa requirements
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 been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
