RE: The tariff classification of a boys’ knit garment from Indonesia.

Dear Ms. Bailey:

In your letter dated January 18, 1999, you requested a tariff classifi?cation ruling. As requested, your sample will be returned.

Item 309B is a boys’(sizes 8-20) garment constructed from 55 percent polyester, 45 percent acrylic finely knit sherpa pile fabric. Item 309B features a full front opening with a zipper closure; a self-fabric convertible collar; long hemmed sleeves; two slant pockets below the waist; rib knit inserts on the shoulders and sleeves; and a straight, hemmed bottom.

The applicable subheading for Item 309B will be 6110.30.3050, Har?monized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTS), which provides for: sweaters, pullovers, sweatshirts, waistcoats (vests) and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: of man-made fibers: other: other: other: other: men’s or boys’. The rate of duty will be 33.1 percent ad valorem.

Item 309B falls within textile category designation 638. Based upon in?ter?national textile trade agree?ments, products of Indonesia are subject to a visa re?quire?ment and quota restraints.

The designated textile and apparel category may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the sub?ject mer?chan?dise may be affected. Since part categories are the result of in?ter??na?tion??al bilateral agreements which are sub?ject to frequent re?ne?go?ti?a?tions 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 in?spec?tion 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 this ruling letter or the control number indicated above should be attached to the entry docu?ments filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding this ruling, contact National Import Specialist Mary Ryan at 212-637-7081.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
