A sample was received of style # NAT103A, a child's knit top. The garment is constructed of a 100% polyester knit polar fleece and features long sleeves, a hood, and side vents. Per your telephone conversation with FNIS Lenore Hawley the garment is unisex and will be imported in childrens' sizes 6-8. Style NAT103A will be manufactured in Taiwan.

The sample is being returned to you.

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, with its control number, should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction.

Sincerely,

David F. Greenleaf
