RE:  The tariff classification of a woman's pullover from Turkey


Dear Mr. Chubb:


    In your letter dated July 31, 1996, you requested a classification ruling.  

    The submitted sample, style 7261, is a woman's 100% cotton jersey knit pullover. The pullover
has a partial zippered opening at the neckline, a drawstring at the top of the mock turtle neck, long
hemmed sleeves, a hemmed bottom, and two side seam pockets below the waist.

    Your sample will be returned as requested.

    The applicable subheading for the pullover will be 6110.20.2075, Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTS), which provides for sweaters, pullovers, waistcoats(vests) and similar
articles, knitted or crocheted, of cotton, other, other, women's or girls'.  The duty rate will be 19.9%.
,

    Style 7261 falls within textile category designation 339. Based upon international textile trade
agreements, products of Turkey are subject to quota and the requirements of a visa.

    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 Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19
C.F.R. 177).

    A copy of this ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. 

                                   Sincerely,



                               Artis M.  Morgan, Jr.
