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

Dear Ms. Rizzo:

In your letter dated October 26, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling. As requested, your sample will be returned.

Style 2M316505 is a men’s jacket constructed from 100% cotton, French terry knit fabric. The jacket features a stand-up collar, a full front opening with a zippered closure, long sleeves with rib knit cuffs, a welt pocket with a snap closure on the left chest, slash pockets below the waist, and a rib knit bottom.

The applicable subheading for Style 2M316505 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% 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/.

Style 2M316505 falls within textile category designation 334.
