No sample of the garment was submitted. A picture of the bath wrap and a swatch of the fabric was provided. The microfiber terry bath wrap is constructed from 80% polyester and 20% nylon woven fabric. The garment covers the bust and extends to approximately the knee.

The duty rate will be 16.4 percent ad valorem. The bath wrap falls within textile category designation 650. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Korea are subject to quota and the requirement of a visa. The designated textile and apparel categories and their quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes. To obtain the most current information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the U.S. Customs Service Textile Status Report, an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available at the Customs Web site at www.customs.gov. In addition, 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 and should also be verified at the time of shipment.
