The rate of duty will be 12 percent ad valorem. The vest falls within textile category designation 459. Based upon international textile trade agreements products of Vietnam are not currently subject to quota restraints or the requirement of a visa.

To obtain the most current information, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the Textile Status Report for Absolute Quotas, which is available at our Web site at www.cbp.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. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R.).
