Dear Ms. Mugrage:
In your letter dated June 12, 2014 you requested a tariff classification ruling. Your sample will be retained by this office.
Style 1019095 is a woman’s plus size knit garment constructed from 53% nylon and 47% cotton openwork knit fabric which prevents counting stitches in the direction that the fabric was formed. The cardigan features nine panels. Three of the front six panels are sewn together lengthwise on either side of the cardigan, and three back panels sewn together lengthwise. Additional features include a notched lapel collar with snap closures, long sleeves with banded cuffs, a full front zipper closure and a banded bottom. The garment extends from the shoulders to below the waist.
You requested classification of style 1019095 as a garment of heading 6114, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS). Style 1019095 has the construction features of a cardigan which is more specifically provided for in heading 6110. Consequently, the applicable subheading for the cardigan will be 6110.30.3059, HTSUS, which provides for Sweaters, pullovers...and similar articles, knitted or crocheted (con.): of man-made fibers (con.): Other (con.) Other (con.): Other: Women’s or girls’: Other. The rate of duty will be 32 percent ad valorem.
