Dear Mr. Garrett:

In your letter dated December 18, 2002, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Your sample is being returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for the sweater will be 6110.90.1020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for sweaters, crocheted: of other textile materials: containing 70 percent or more by weight of silk or silk waste: sweaters: women’s or girls’. The duty rate will be 1.4% ad valorem.

The sweater falls within textile category designation 746. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Italy are neither subject to quota nor the requirement of a visa.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
