RE: The tariff classification of women's wearing apparel from India

Dear Ms. Wallertz:

In your letter dated September 17, 2002, you requested a ruling on tariff classification. The sample submitted with your request will be returned to you under separate cover.

Style S03-14-117 is a woman’s garment constructed from 100 percent rayon woven fabric. The garment features long hemmed sleeves, a notch collar and an full front opening with a self-fabric tie. The garment extends from the shoulders to the ankle and has side vents that extend from the hem to the hip area.

The applicable subheading for style S03-14-117 will be 6211.43.0091, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for track suits, ski-suits and swimwear; other garments: other garments, women’s or girls’: of man-made fibers: other. The rate of duty will be 16.2 percent ad valorem.

Style S03-14-117 falls within textile category designation 659. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of India are currently subject to quota restraints 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 Patricia Schiazzano at 646-733-3051.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
