Dear Ms. Ludy:

In your letter dated October 6, 1998, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

A piece of 60/40 cotton/poly fabric with a camouflage pattern is sewn to the top of the frame in order to form a seat. Below the seat and attached to it by means of stitching is a bag with a zipper. A webbed carrying handle is attached to the frame. The dimensions of the stool, when opened, are approximately 15"W x 12"D x 17"H. You indicate that the purpose and use of the chair is for a hunter to sit on it when hunting for doves.

Your sample is being returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for The Dove Hunting Chair will be 9401.79.0015, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other seats, with metal frames: other: outdoor: with textile covered cushions or textile seating or backing material: other.
