The duty rate will be 7.6 percent ad valorem.

Style 1102 falls within textile category designation 359. Sri-Lanka is a member of the World Trade Organization (WTO), and this style is not subject to quota or the requirements of a visa.

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