RE: The tariff classification of a man's pullover jacket from Taiwan

Dear Ms. Antrim:

In your letter dated October 5, 1990, on behalf of Patagonia, you requested a classification ruling.

The sample submitted, "Warm Weather Training Shell", style number 85241, is a man's pullover jacket constructed of a woven 100 percent ripstop nylon fabric. The garment is visibly coated with "Sealcoat" and an H2No water repellant finish.

The pullover is short sleeved and has a partial opening at the neck secured by a "VELCRO"-type fastener and a snap closure. The garment's collar and the border at the end of the sleeves are composed of a ribbed knit fabric. There is a drawcord with a plastic cord stopper through the bottom hem and a zippered nylon fabric mesh pocket on the left chest.

The applicable subheading for the pullover will be 6210.40.1020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for garments, made up of fabrics of heading 5602, 5603, 5903, 5906 or 5907, other men's garments of man-made fibers, other, anoraks, windbreakers and similar articles. The duty rate will be 7.6 percent ad valorem.

The garment falls within textile category designation 634. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Taiwan are presently subject to quota restraints and the requirement of a visa.

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. Since 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.

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

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Previous Ruling Next Ruling
