Dear Mr. Battu: In your letter dated November 11, 2001 you requested a classification ruling. The submitted sample is a ladies shawl. The shawl is composed of knit nylon netting. The item is triangular in shape, measures approximately 68 x 42 x 42 inches and features long fringe around the edge and beading on the shawl.

The shawl falls within textile category designation 659. 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 and their quota and visa status are the result of international agreements that are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes.

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.
