RE: The tariff classification of headbands from China.
Dear Ms. Yam:
In your letter dated August 22, 2020, you requested a tariff classification ruling.
You submitted photographs of three items identified as Easter Headbands for Adults.
The items consist of rabbit ears made of white polyester faux fur with polyester textile fabric lining inside of the ears, which are permanently attached to a plastic semi-rigid horseshoe-shaped headband with a white faux fur covering.
Item number 211-8131A, features iridescent textile on the inside of the ears and white faux fur on the outside. The item measures approximately 9.5” x 9.5” x 0.75.”
Item number 211-8130A/ 211-8130A11, features pale pink textile on the inside of the ears with a pink glitter bow attached between the ears and white faux fur on the outside. The item measures approximately 9” x 8.75” x 0.75.”
Item number 211-8059A12, features pink glitter textile on the inside of the ears and white faux fur on the outside. The item measures approximately 12” x 11” x 1.”
The Easter Headbands for Adults are not intended to hold the hair in place or beautify oneself. Instead, the headband is designed for the sole purpose of holding the rabbit ears decoration on the head, so that the article can be worn as a costume.
