RE: The tariff classification of a men’s knit jacket from Hong Kong.

Dear Ms. Shira:

In your letter dated February 4, 2005, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Polo Ralph Lauren. As requested, your sample will be returned.

The jacket features a stand up collar; a full front opening with a zippered closure; long sleeves with close fitting, herringbone rib cuffs; zippered, vertical pockets below the waist; and a snug fitting, herringbone rib bottom band.

The applicable subheading for Style 01290051 will be 6101.20.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTS), which provides for: men’s or boys’ overcoats, carcoats, capes, cloaks, anoraks (including ski-jackets), windbreakers, and similar articles, knitted or crocheted: other than those of heading 6103: of cotton: men’s. The rate of duty is 15.9 percent ad valorem.

Style 01290051 falls within textile category designation 334. Quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes.
