RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s nightgown from Macau.

Dear Ms. De Silva:

In your letter dated September 28, 2005, you requested a classification ruling for a woman’s nightgown from Macau. The sample will be returned, as requested.

Style 294018 is a woman’s nightgown constructed from 100 percent nylon knit openwork fabric. The nightgown, which extends approximately to mid-thigh, has adjustable shoulder straps, a V neckline in front, and the bottom finished with lace trim. Eight-inch side slits extend upward from the bottom hem.

The applicable subheading for style 294018 will be 6108.32.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for women's knit ...nightdresses of man-made fibers. The rate of duty will be 16 percent ad valorem.

Style 294018 falls within the textile category designation 651. 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. In addition, you will find current information on textile import quotas, textile safeguard actions and related issues at the web site of the Office of Textiles and Apparel, at otexa.ita.doc.gov.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Angela De Gaetano at 646-733-3052.
