RE: The tariff classification of Textile Costumes from China
Dear Mr. August:
In your letter dated February 16, 2005 you requested a tariff classification ruling.
Items 1649 and 1649H, Teen Bloodstone Vampiress, consists of a dress, a hoop slip, a collar/choker, and sleevelets. The dress has three styling features, one well-made edge and one well-made embellishment. However, the remaining edges are overlock, and the seams and both construction features are flimsy.
Items 5103 & 5103H, Adult Bloodstone Vampiress, are the same as above but sized for adults. Items 5762 and 5762H, Plus Size Bloodstone Vampiress, are the same as 1649 and 1649H above but sized to fit plus size adults. Items 5908 and 5908H, Child Bloodstone Vampiress, are the same as 1649 and 1649H above but sized to fit children.
The Dress of each of these sets meets the flimsy and non-durable requirements for classification within Heading 9505. Your sample was retained for training purposes.
The applicable subheading for Items 1649,1649H, 5103, 5103H, 5762, 5762H, 5908, and 5908H will be 9505.90.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Festive, carnival or other entertainment articles, including magic tricks, and practical joke articles; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other. The rate of duty will be free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Alice J. Wong at 646-733-3026.
