RE: The tariff classification of a backpack from China.

Dear Ms. Kwok:

In your letter dated November 15th, 2000 you requested a classification ruling.

The interior is unlined and consists of a single compartment with no additional features. There is a zippered pocket on each side of the exterior and two shoulder straps are permanently attached to the rear of the bag. The top opening is secured by a drawstring closure.

The applicable subheading for #C-58326 will be 4202.92.4500, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for travel, sports, and similar bags, other. The duty rate will be 20% ad valorem.

There are no countervailing or antidumping duties on backpacks from China at this time.
