NY 806063 January 31, 1995 CLA-2-63:S:N:N6:349 806063 CATEGORY: Classification TARIFF NO.: 6304.91.0020 Ms. Karen C. Combest Atico International, Inc. P.O. Box 520817 Miami, Fl. 33152-0817 RE: The tariff classification of crocheted lace coasters from China. Dear Ms. Combest: In your letter dated January 13, 1995 you requested a classification ruling. You submitted four coasters in a straw case. The crocheted lace coasters are made of 100 percent cotton yarn and measure approximately 14 centimeters in diameter. For classification purposes these coasters are considered doilies. The straw case is used to store the coasters and is fitted to the size of the coasters. The applicable subheading for the coasters will be 6304.91.0020, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other furnishing articles, excluding those of heading 9404: other: knitted or crocheted... of cotton. The duty rate will be 10.9 percent ad valorem. The coasters fall within textile category designation 369. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of China are subject to 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. 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 Area Director New York Seaport
