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

Dear Ms. Girvin:

In your letter dated May 25, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling. As requested, your sample will be returned.

The jacket features a self-fabric hood with a drawstring; a full front opening with a zippered closure; long sleeves with self-fabric banded cuffs; two pouch pockets below the waist; and a close fitting, self-fabric banded bottom. You state that you will import the same garment in men’s tall sizes as Style 033-6391.

The applicable subheading for Styles 033-6390 and 033-6391 will be 6101.20.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTSUS), 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% ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.
