RE: The tariff classification of a girls’ cardigan from China

Dear Ms. York:

In your letter dated October 27, 2006, written on behalf of Target Stores, you requested a classification ruling.

Submitted style 002062811, manufactured from jersey fabric of 100% cotton, is an unlined garment, characterized by a full-front, metal zipper, by a hood, and by shirring around the cuffs of the long sleeves and the waistband.

As you have requested, the sample garment is being returned.

In infants’ sizes the applicable subheading for this style will be 6111.20.3000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for babies’ garments, knitted, of cotton, sweatersand similar articles, except those imported as parts of sets; and in larger sizes for girls it will be 6110.20.2079, HTSUS, which provides for sweatersand similar articles, knittedj, of cotton, other, other, other, girls’, other.
