In your letter dated July 21, 2005, you requested a classification ruling.

The submitted sample, style 3012M, is a woman’s upper body garment constructed from 100 percent cotton battenburg lace. The garment features long sleeves, a round neckline and a full front opening secured by a hook and eye closure. The garment does not reach the waist.

The applicable subheading for style 3012M will be 6211.42.0081, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for track suits, ski-suits and swimwear; other garments: other garments, women’s or girls: of cotton: other. The duty rate will be 8.1 percent ad valorem..

Style 3012M falls within textile category designation 359. Quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information as to whether quota and visa requirements apply to this merchandise, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the “Textile Status Report for Absolute Quotas” available at our web site at www.cbp.gov.
