RE: The tariff classification of a pillowcase, flat sheet and duvet cover from Italy

Dear Ms. Venkateswaran:

In your letter dated March 22, 2007 you requested a classification ruling.

The submitted sample is a pillowcase (WH Scallop SKU Number 9217191). You will also import a flat sheet (WH Scallop Flat Sheet SKU Number 9213646) and a duvet cover (WH Scallop Duvet Cover SKU 9216797). All of the items will be made from 100 percent cotton woven fabric. The fabric is not printed or napped. The top edge of the flat sheet and the duvet cover will have the same edge finish as the submitted pillowcase. The open end of the pillowcase is cut to form a shallow scalloped effect. The edge of the shallow scallop is finished with a strip of fabric binding or capping. This binding or capping is not considered edging or trimming.
