RE: The tariff classification of a men’s knit shirt from China and Macau.

Dear Ms. Shu:

In your letter dated July 2, 2007, you requested a tariff classification ruling. As requested, your sample will be returned.

Style 5086, “Wicking Textured Color Block Sport Shirt”, is a men’s shirt constructed from 100% polyester, finely knit mesh fabric that measures 16 stitches per linear centimeter counted in the horizontal direction and 22 stitches per linear centimeter counted in the vertical direction. Style 5086 features a self-fabric spread collar; a partial front opening with three button closures; short hemmed sleeves; and a straight, hemmed bottom. Style 5086 will be imported in Men’s sizes S-5XL.

The applicable subheading for Style 5086 will be 6105.20.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States, (HTSUS), which provides for: men’s or boys’ shirts, of man-made fibers: other: men’s. The duty rate is 32% ad valorem.

Style 5086 falls within textile category designation 638. With the exception of certain products of China, quota/visa requirements are no longer applicable for merchandise which is the product of World Trade Organization (WTO) member countries. The textile category number above applies to merchandise produced in non-WTO member-countries.

To obtain the most current information on quota and visa requirements applicable to this merchandise, we suggest you check, close to the time of shipment, the “Textile Status Report for Absolute Quotas” which is available on our web site at www.cbp.gov. For current information regarding possible textile safeguard actions on goods from China and related issues, we refer you to the web site of the Office of Textiles and Apparel of the Department of Commerce at otexa.ita.doc.gov.

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 Mary Ryan at 646-733-3271.
