RE: The tariff classification of a man’s jacket from Hong Kong

Dear Ms. Monahan:

In your letter dated January 19, 2004, you requested a classification ruling.

The sample submitted, style number Y374T80, is a man’s hip-length jacket constructed of a shell composed of a woven 100% cotton poplin fabric. The jacket is lined with a woven fabric.

The jacket has a full front opening secured by a zipper closure, two front pockets with zipper closures at the waist, and long sleeves with ribbed-knit fabric cuffs. The garment features a patch pocket with a zipper closure and three small pencil pockets on the upper portion of the right sleeve. The jacket has a neck warmer collar and a bottom hem composed of a ribbed-knit fabric. The garment has two embroidered eyelets under each armhole, on the rear yoke and on the lower portion of each front pocket. The left chest features the logo “UB Mfg, Inc. Contract 67-63”.

The sample is being returned to you as you have requested.

The applicable subheading for the jacket will be 6201.92.2051, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other men’s anoraks, windbreakers and similar articles: of cotton. The duty rate will be 9.4 percent ad valorem.

The jacket falls within textile category designation 334. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Hong Kong are presently 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 Textile Status Report for Absolute Quotas, which is available at our Web site at www.cbp.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 W. Raftery at 646-733-3047.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
