RE: The tariff classification of a men’s jacket from China

Dear Ms. Fox:

In your letter dated May 17, 2006, on behalf of Tellas Ltd., you requested a tariff classification ruling. The sample is being returned to you as you have requested.

Style 04346A012A is a men’s hip-length jacket constructed of a shell composed from a 70% cotton/30% polyester knit velour fabric. The jacket has a stand-up collar, a full front opening that is secured by a zipper closure that extends to the top of the collar, two front pockets with zipper closures at the waist, long sleeves with self-fabric banded cuffs at the wrist area and a self-fabric tightened waistband at the bottom.

The applicable subheading for the jacket will be 6101.20.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for: men’s or boys’ overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers, and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: other than those of heading 6103: of cotton: men’s. The duty rate will be 15.9% ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.
