RE: The tariff classification of a man's linen shirt from Guatemala.

Dear Mr. Kelly:

In your letter dated September 20, 1994 you requested on behalf of your client, Salant Corporation, a tariff classification ruling.

The sample submitted, style No. DN50072-11, is a man's woven shirt composed of 55% linen and 45% cotton. It has a pointed collar, long sleeves with button closure cuffs, a breast pocket and a full frontal opening with button closures.

The applicable subheading for the sample submitted will be 6205.90.4040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for men's woven shirts of other textile materials. The rate of duty will be 3% ad valorem.

The sample submitted falls within textile category designation 840. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of Guatemala are subject to visa requirements and quota restraints. At the present time textile category 840 is not subject to either visa requirements or 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
