RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s shirt from India

Dear Mr. Sullivan:

In your letter dated January 12, 2000, you requested a classification ruling on behalf of Newport News, Inc. The sample that you have submitted will be returned to you under separate cover.

Style F00-14-001 is a woman’s shirt constructed from 100 percent cotton woven denim fabric. The shirt features long sleeves with button cuffs, a collar and lapels, two chest pockets with buttoned flaps and a full front opening secured by five rivet buttons.

The applicable subheading for style F00-14-001 will be 6206.30.3010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for women’s or girls’ blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses: of cotton: other: other: with two or more colors in the warp and/or the filling: women’s. The duty rate will be 15.6 percent ad valorem.

Style F00-14-001 falls within textile category designation 341. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of India are subject to quota restraints and a visa requirement.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report, an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available at the Customs Web Site at WWW.CUSTOMS.USTREAS.GOV. In addition, the designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

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. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Patricia Schiazzano at 212-637-7080.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
