RE: The tariff classification of a women’s jumper from India

Dear Sir/Madam:

In your letter dated August 1, 2000, you requested a classification ruling. The samples submitted with your request will be returned to you under separate cover.

Style 16352 (misses) is a women’s jumper constructed from 88 percent cotton and 12 percent linen woven fabric. The jumper features oversized armholes, a V-neckline and side vents. The front is embellished with appliques and embroidery. The garment provides insufficient coverage for wear without another outerwear garment. Style 46352 is identical to the above but comes in women’s (plus) sizes.

The applicable subheading for styles 16352 and 46352 will be 6211.42.0060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for track suits, ski-suits and swimwear; other garments: other garments, women’s or girls’: of cotton: jumpers. The duty rate will be 8.3 percent ad valorem.

Styles 16352 and 46352 fall within textile category designation 359. 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.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,
