RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s shirt from Hong Kong.

Dear Ms. Kessens

In your letter dated January 12, 2005, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The garment features shot sleeves, a modified U-shaped neckline, a partial front opening with a lace-up closure, a lace-up drawstring at the right side, and a hemmed bottom. The fabric of the shirt has more than 10 stitches per centimeter counted in both the horizontal and vertical directions.

We are returning your sample as you requested.

The applicable subheading for the shirt, Style DJ011205, will be 6106.20.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for women’s or girls’ blouses and shirts, knitted or crocheted, of man-made fibers, other, women’s. The rate of duty will be 32% ad valorem.
