RE: The tariff classification of woven interlining fabric from Korea.

Dear Mr. Choi:

In your letter dated July 29, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You have submitted two samples of woven fabric. The first sample is identified as item no. IS-480B. It is composed of 37% cotton, 33% camel hair, 16% rayon, and 14% horse hair. This merchandise is constructed using 30/1 c.c. carded yarns in the warp and 11/1 n.m. yarns in the filling. It weighs 190 g/m2 and will be imported in various widths ranging between 107 and 152 centimeters.

The second sample identified as item no. IS-480A, is composed of 37% cotton, 33% camel hair, 16% rayon and 14% horse hair. This product is constructed using 30/1 c.c. carded yarns in the warp and 9.5 n.m. yarns in the filling. The fabric weighs 164 g/m2 and will be imported in widths ranging between 107 and 152 centimeters.

The applicable subheading for both of the interlining woven fabrics will be 5111.90.9000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for woven fabrics of carded wool or of carded fine animal hair, other, other, other. The rate of duty will be 33 percent ad valorem.

These textile products fall within textile category designation 410. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of Korea 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 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,

Jean F. Maguire
Area Director
