RE: The tariff classification of a dress set from Guatemala

Dear Ms. Wierbicki:

In your letter dated December 22, 1999, on behalf of Avon Products, Inc., you requested a classification ruling.

The submitted samples, #PP201829, comprise a set, consisting of a dress in girls’ sizes 4 to 16 and a scrunchie for use in the hair, both manufactured from the same printed fabric of 100% cotton jersey.

The sleeveless dress is a v-necked pullover, fashioned as a mock sarong with ornamental ties at one of the sides.

As you have requested, the samples are being returned.

The applicable subheading for the dress and the scrunchie will be 6104.42.0020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for girls’ensemblesdressesknitted, dresses, of cotton.. The duty rate will be 11.8 per cent ad valorem.

The dress set falls within textile category designation 336. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Guatemala are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa.

The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report, an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available at the Customs Web site at www.customs.gov. In addition, 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 and should also be verified at the time of shipment.

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. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Kirschner at 212-637-7079.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
