RE: The tariff classification of a women's woven jacket to be manufactured in Hong Kong

Dear Mr. Brockmann:

In your letter dated October 28, 1997, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The submitted sample, designated style number WJW002080, is a women's jacket manufactured from a 100% cotton woven twill fabric.

The garment, which is fully lined, features a full frontal opening secured by five buttons, each three-quarters of an inch in diameter, a pointed collar, slanted insert pockets below the waist, long capped sleeves, three and one-half inch capped side vents, a vertical rear seam, and a straight, hemmed bottom.

The applicable subheading for the garment is 6202.92.2061, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, which provides for other women's anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers and similar articles (including padded, sleeveless jackets), other than those of heading 6204, of cotton. The applicable rate of duty is 9.3%, ad valorem.

The garment falls within textile category designation 335. Based on international textile trade agreements, products of Hong Kong are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa.

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. 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.

The sample is being returned to you, as requested.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.

Sincerely,

John M. Regan
Service Port Director
