RE: The tariff classification of a costume from Sri Lanka.

Dear Ms. Young:

In your letter dated June 11, 2002, on behalf of Meijer Distribution, you requested a classification ruling. The sample will be returned to you as requested.

The submitted sample, Item #855428 is a Monster Jacket unisex costume composed of knit polyester fabric. The jacket has a full front zipper closure, elastic at the cuffs and bottom, and an attached hood with ears and cape. The jacket represents a monster character.

The applicable subheading for the Monster Jacket, Item #855428 will be 6102.30.2020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for “Women’s or girls’(including ski-jackets)knitted or crocheted.” The duty rate will be 28.6% ad valorem.

Item #855428 falls within textile category designation 635. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Sri Lanka 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 Kenneth Reidlinger at 646-733-5053.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
