RE: The tariff classification of a boys' knit garment from the
People's Republic of China.
Dear Ms. Li:
In your letter dated February 10, 1993, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.
Style No. 9019 is a boys' long sleeved pullover garment
which is constructed from 100 percent cotton, finely knit jersey
fabric. The garment features a rib knit crew neckline; a wide,
loose fitting body; long sleeves with rib knit cuffs; and a
hemmed bottom.
The applicable subheading for this garment will be
6110.20.2065, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States,
(HTS), which provides for: sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts,
waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: of
cotton: other: other: other: men's or boys'. The duty rate will
be 20.7 percent ad valorem.
This garment falls within textile category designation 338.
Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of
the People's Republic of China are subject to a visa requirement
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 in-
spection 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
