The item features double textile carrying handles, a front exterior storage pocket, and each side of the bag is designed with a small pocket with an elasticized top to contain a baby's bottle, etc.. It closes by means of a top textile zipper closure.

The applicable subheading for style #F85, the diaper bag of plastic sheeting, will be 4202.92.4500, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for travel, sports and similar bags, with outer surface of plastic sheeting, other. The duty rate will be 20 percent ad valorem.

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.
