Dear Ms. Smith:

In your letter dated May 06, 1997, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Lansdale Manufacturing, ;ocated in Mongomeryville, PA.

The sample submitted is a women's blouse, style #712515, no specific size is indicated. As requested, the sample will be returned to you.

The blouse is made of a woven fabric, stated to be 100% Tencel. This upper body garment features a mandarin style collar, a full frontal opening with buttons for closure, and long sleeves without cuffs. The garment has a straight hem with vents on the sides.

The applicable subheading for the women's blouse will be 6206.40.3030, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States(HTS), which provides for Women's or girl's blouses, shirts and shirt-blouses: Of man-made fibers: Other: Other: Other: Women's.

Based upon international textile trade agreements, these products of Costa Rica, Columbia and Dominican Republic are not subject to quota restrints, but there are visa requirements for these products from both Columbia and the Dominican Republic.

The designated textile and apparel categories may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected. 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 Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.

Sincerely,
