RE: The tariff classification of a man's knit muscle shirt from Pakistan.

Dear Mr. Sias:

In your letter dated June 21 1991, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of F.W. Woolworth Co.

Style No. 0135 (Order No. 2124669), is a man's sleeveless muscle shirt which is constructed from 100 percent cotton, finely knit jersey fabric. The garment features a rib knit crew neckline; rib knit edging at the armholes; and a hemmed bottom.

As requested, your sample will be returned.

The applicable subheading for Style No. 0135 will be 6110.20.2065, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for: sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: of cotton: other: other: other: men's or boys'. The duty rate will be 20.7 percent ad valorem.

Style No. 0135 falls within textile category designation 338. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of Pakistan are subject to visa requirements and quota restraints.

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. Since part categories are the result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most currenta 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 already been filed, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
