Dear Mr. Harris: In your letter dated March 13, 2000, on behalf of World Wide Apparel Resources, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The sample submitted with the request will be returned to you. The submitted sample is a Style # S201B, S201BA and S201BB woman’s vest constructed of Laminated Fabric # LAM-9102506. You state that the garment is identical for all three style numbers. The vest is composed of a knit 65% polyester/35% cotton fabric that has been laminated with a cellular polyurethane plastic sheeting, which completely obscures the underlying fabric. The vest is unlined, sleeveless, and features a collar, full front zipper closure and two side slash pockets. Although the item is of cellular construction, the fabric has a function beyond that of mere reinforcement. The applicable subheading for the Style # S201B, S201BA and S201BB woman’s vest constructed of Laminated Fabric # LAM-9102506 will be 6113.00.1012, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for “Garments, made up of knitted or crocheted fabrics of heading 5903, 5906 or 5907: Having an outer surface impregnated, coated, covered, or laminated with rubber or plastics material which completely obscures the underlying fabric, Other.” The rate of duty will be 5.3% ad valorem.
