Dear Mr. Powley:

client MGL Corporation, you requested a tariff classification
ruling.
The submitted sample is a 2x1 twill woven fabric. It is
composed of 50% staple polyester and 50% staple rayon. This
textile product is constructed using 24/2 c.c. yarns in both the
warp and filling. The fabric is manufactured with yarns of
different colors and weighs 250 g/m2.
The applicable subheading for the 2x1 twill woven fabric
will be 5516.93.0090, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for woven fabrics of artificial
staple fibers, other, of yarns of different colors, other. The
rate of duty will be 16.2 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,
