NY 893955 January 21, 1994 CLA-2-62:S:N:N5:353 893955 CATEGORY: Classification TARIFF NO.: 6214.30.0000 Ms. Sandra Kutz World Commerce Systems, Ltd. P.O. Box 66593 O'Hare Field Chicago, Illinois 60666 RE: The tariff classification of a scarf from India. Dear Ms. Kutz: In your letter dated January 13, 1994, on behalf of Majestic Imports, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The submitted sample is a scarf measuring approximately 16 X 54 inches, consisting of woven nylon fabric. The applicable subheading for the scarf will be 6214.30.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for shawls, scarves, mufflers, mantillas, veils and the like: Of synthetic fibers. The rate of duty will be 10.6 percent ad valorem. The scarf falls within textile category designation 659. Based upon international textile trade agreements, products of India are subject to quota restraints and 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 Area Director New York Seaport
