RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s bolero-style jacket from China

Dear Ms. Gong:

In your letter dated June 2, 2005, you requested a classification ruling on behalf of Norton McNaughton of Squire, Inc. As requested, your sample is being returned to you.

Your sample, style C4XH4U, is a woman’s bolero-style jacket constructed from 80% acrylic, 20% polyester pile knit fabric. The garment does not reach the waist. It features two front panels, a full front opening with one hook-and-eye closure, a shawl-style collar, a woven lining, and ¾ length sleeves.

The applicable subheading for style C4XH4U will be 6104.33.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for women’s or girls’ suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear), knitted or crocheted: suit-type jackets and blazers: of synthetic fibers: other. The duty rate will be 28.2% ad valorem.

Style C4XH4U falls within textile category designation 635. Quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes.
