RE: The tariff classification of women's knit pajamas from
Mauritius.
Dear Mr. Rofe:
In your letter dated August 21, 1990, you requested a
classification ruling.
The submitted garments, style PJ 91S and style PJ 91L are
women's pajamas constructed from 100% cotton finely knit fabric.
Style PJ 91S features a pullover top portion with round neckline,
short hemmed sleeves and a hemmed bottom. The pant portion
features elastic waistband and short hemmed leg openings. Style
PJ 91L is identical except for the bottom portion which features
long leg openings. In addition to the garment, you have
submitted information indicating that the merchandise is
designed, manufactured, and sold as sleepwear.
The applicable subheading for the pajamas will be
6108.31.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for women's knitted pajamas of cotton.
The rate of duty will be 9 percent ad valorem.
The pajamas fall within textile category designation 351. As
products of Mauritius this merchandise is presently not subject
to visa requirements or quota restraints.
Since country visa requirements and quota restraints are
subject to change, please verify prior to shipment.
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
