RE: The tariff classification of a woman’s pant suit from China

Dear Ms. Philpot:

In your letter dated May 2, 2008, you requested a classification ruling. Your sample will be returned as requested.

Submitted sample, style #72485, is a woman’s pant suit constructed from 100% polyester woven fabric. The jacket extends from the shoulder to slightly below the waist and is composed of more than four panels. The jacket features a satin collar that extends into a tie, long sleeves, a full lining, a full front opening secured by three buttons, two pockets with flaps at the waist and a hemmed bottom. The pant features a front one button and zipper closure, a full lining and long hemmed legs.

The applicable subheading for the style 72485 will be 6204.13.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for women’s or girls’ suits, ensembles, suit-type jackets, blazers, dresses, skirts, divided skirts, trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches and shorts (other than swimwear): suits: of synthetic fibers: other: women’s. The duty rate will be 35.3 cents/kg + 25.9 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/.

Style 72485 falls within textile category 644. With the exception of certain products of China, quota/visa requirements are no longer applicable for merchandise which is the product of World Trade Organization (WTO) member countries.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. Quota and visa requirements are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. 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.
