In your letter dated June 8, 1999, on behalf of your client Viva Sportswear, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The submitted sample, Style #2489, is a pair of girl’s woven pants. The garment is constructed of 100% cotton fabric with an allover embroidery design. The garment also has an elasticized waist and long hemmed leg openings.

You state in your letter that the pants will be imported in girls’ sizes 2T, 3T, 4T and 5T.

Your sample is being returned as requested.

The duty rate will be 17.2% ad valorem.
