RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s sweatshirt from China

A ribbed vertical strip of fabric extends from the underarms to the ribbed bottom on both sides. A decorative print design is on the front. “Zoo York” is embroidered on the back.

The applicable subheading for the sweatshirt will be 6110.20.2045, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for sweatshirts, knitted: of cotton: other: sweatshirts: women’s. The rate of duty will be 16.5% ad valorem.
