Dear Mr. Kim:
In your letter dated February 26, 2015 you requested a tariff classification ruling. As requested the sample is being returned.
You will be importing a duvet cover. A pillow sham, identified as Item Hawthorn, was submitted as a representative sample.

The face panel is a jacquard woven fabric with a floral design and the back panel is a plain woven fabric. The face and back panels are joined together creating a flange or picture frame effect. It will feature a zipper closure. The duvet cover will be available in twin, queen and king and sizes. The cover does not contain any embroidery, lace, braid, edging, trimming, piping or applique work.
The applicable subheading for the duvet cover will be 6302.31.9050, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for bed linen, table linen, toilet linen and kitchen linen: other bed linen: of cotton: other: not napped… other. The duty rate will be 6.7 percent ad valorem.
