RE: The tariff classification of a "Beach Blanket" from China.
Dear Mr. Slagle:
In your letter dated January 12, 1993, on behalf of Rolle'
Ltd., Mt. Laurel, New Jersey, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The sample submitted is a "Beach Blanket" composed of an
exterior surface of 100 percent cotton terry cloth and one of 100
percent cotton twill fabric. Sewn onto each corner is a round
patch similar to the VELCRO brand loop fastener that can be used
to attach other blankets. The "Beach Blanket" features a pocket
at one end which contains a plastic inflatable pillow and
secured by strips similar to the VELCRO brand loop fastener. The
article is contained in a nylon bag with draw cord closure, a
handle and a strap. The sample is being returned as requested.
The applicable subheading for the "Beach Blanket" will be
6307.90.9986, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other made up articles...Other: Other,
other. The rate of duty will be 7 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the
documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be
brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
Sincerely,
Jean F. Maguire
