RE:  The tariff classification of a man's jacket from India
     
Dear Ms. Jarencio:

     In your letter dated December 10, 1996, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.

     The submitted sample, style 5F605, is a man's jacket
constructed from 100% cotton woven fabric weighing 270 g/m2. The
garment features a shirt collar, a full frontal opening with a
zipper closure, long sleeves with buttoned cuffs, 2 slash pockets
below the waist, and a partially elasticized bottom.    

     Your sample will be returned as requested.

     The applicable subheading for the jacket will be
6201.92.2051, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for men's or boys' overcoats...other than
those of heading 6203: anoraks...sleeveless jackets: of cotton:
other: other: other: other: men's .  The rate of duty will be
9.8%.  

     The jacket falls within textile category designation 334.
Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of
India are subject to a quota and the requirement of a visa.

     The designated textile and apparel categories may be
subdivided into parts.  If so, visa and quota requirements
applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected.  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).

     This new letter replaces the first letter sent to you dated
December 20, 1996.

     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.                               



                                        Sincerely,
