RE: The tariff classification of a pet dog costume, from China.

Dear Ms. Fragomeli:

In your letter dated September 11, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You submitted a representative sample of style 6809914 (ARMY GRUNT). The costume is largely of knit polyester man-made fiber construction. It is of two pieces, a hat, having an elasticized strap to be placed over the dog’s head, and the remaining portion to be secured over the torso area of the dog. The name in brackets above depicts the particular theme of the respective costume.

The applicable subheading for the costume will be 4201.00.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for saddlery and harness for any animal (including traces, leads, knee pads, muzzles, saddle bags, dog coats and the like), of any material: other. The rate of duty will be 2.8 percent 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/.

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 Deborah Walsh at 646-733-3044.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
