RE: The tariff classification of a dress from Hong Kong.
Dear Ms. Handzel:
In your letter dated January 20, 1993, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The submitted sample, Style LG619 is a girl's 100% cotton chambray,
bleach washed, sleeveless dress. The garment has a fabric tie back and a
hemmed bottom. It is sized for toddlers 2 to 4.
We are returning your sample as you requested.
The applicable subheading for Style LG619 will be 6204.42.3060,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
girls' dresses, of cotton, other, other. The rate of duty will be 12.6% ad
valorem.
The dress falls within textile category designation 336. Based upon
international textile trade agreements, products of Hong Kong are
presently subject to visa requirements.
The designated textile and apparel category may be subdivided into
parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject
merchandise may be affected. Since part categories are the result of
international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent
renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most current information
available, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the
Status report On Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels), an internal
issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available for inspection at
your local Customs office.
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
