RE: The tariff classification of a jacket for girls’ outerwear from India

Dear Mr. Hyland:

In your letter dated March 10, 2004 you requested a classification ruling.

As you have requested, the sample garment is being returned.

In infants’ sizes the jacket falls within textile category designation 239 and in sizes for larger girls within 335. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of India 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.

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 Kirschner at 646-733-3048.
