RE: The tariff classification of vinyl coated textile gloves
from Japan.
Dear Ms. Martin-Sanfilippo:
In your letter received by this office on April 16, 1993, on
behalf of East Coast Sales Company, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The submitted sample, style 690, is a knit textile glove
coated with compact vinyl. The 11 inch glove is used in
industrial applications and features a pile knit lining and vinyl
capping at the top.
The applicable subheading for style 690 will be
6116.10.7040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for gloves, mittens or mitts, knitted or
crocheted: impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or
rubber: other: without fourchettes: other, other. The rate of
duty will be 14 percent ad valorem.
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
