RE: The tariff classification of women's woven jumpers from India.

Dear Mr. Stack:

In your letter dated June 1, 1995, on behalf of RTVCH Holdings, Inc. a subsidiary of Liz Claiborne, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The submitted samples, style numbers R1560421 and R1560521, are women's jumpers made of 100 percent cotton woven fabric. Style R1560421 features a full front opening with eight button closures, a V-neckline, oversized armholes and a hemmed bottom.

Style number R1560521 features a full front opening with ten button closures, a V-neckline, oversized armholes, an elasticized waistband and a hemmed bottom. Your samples will be returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for the jumper will be 6211.42.0060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for track suits, ski- suits and swimwear; other garments, women's or girls', of cotton, jumpers. The rate of duty will be 8.6 percent ad valorem.

The jumpers fall within textile category 359. Based upon international trade agreements, products of India are subject to the requirement of a visa 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.

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

Sincerely,

/signed/

D. Lynn Gordon
