Dear Mr. Kenneally: In your letter dated February 16, 1999, on behalf of Bandwagon Inc., you requested a classification ruling. The submitted sample is a bra liner consisting of woven 100% cotton fabric. The item is worn under a brassiere to provide comfort and to protect sensitive skin from irritation and chafing.

The bra liner falls within textile category designation 359. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Taiwan 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. 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.
