RE:  The tariff classification of women's woven jumpers from the
United Arab Emirates. 

Dear Ms. Beiley:

     In your letter dated August 12, 1991, on behalf of your
client, Ivory International, Inc., you requested a classification
ruling.  

     The submitted samples, style numbers 5221 and 6110, are
women's jumpers, manufactured from 100% cotton, woven fabric.
Style 5221 has oversized armholes; a dropped waist; a partial,
double-breasted, frontal opening secured by eight buttons; a V-
shaped neckline; and two patch pockets on the front, below the
waist. Style 6110 has oversized armholes; a dropped waist; a full
frontal opening secured by eleven buttons; a scoop neckline; two
patch pockets on the front, below the waist, each with a tacked-
on decorative bow; and a rectangle-shaped piece of fabric,
permanently attached on the back, which has a decorative bow
tacked on to it. Neither garment provides the requisite coverage
for wear without another outer garment (such as a blouse). The
samples are being returned under separate cover.   

     The applicable subheading for both garments will be
6211.42.0060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for women's or girls' cotton jumpers. The
rate of duty will be 8.6 percent valorem.
     
     Both garments fall within textile category designation 359. 
Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of
the United Arab Emirates are 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
