RE: The classification of a men's knit jacket from Taiwan.

Dear Ms. Andrews:

In your letter dated February 22, 1999, you requested a tariff classifi?cation ruling. As requested, your sample will be returned.

Style 925A003 is a men’s jacket constructed from 90 percent cotton, 10 percent polyester, finely knit fabric which is napped on the inside surface. Style 925A003 features a self fabric hood with a drawstring; a full front opening with a zipper closure; long sleeves with rib knit cuffs; two side seam pockets below the waist; and a rib knit bottom.

The applicable subheading for Style 925A003 will be 6101.20.0010, Har?monized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTS), which provides for: men’s or boys’ overcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: other than those of heading 6103: of cotton: men's. The rate of duty will be 16.4 percent ad valorem.

Style 925A003 falls within textile category designation 334. Based upon in?ter?national textile trade agree?ments, products of Taiwan 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
