Dear Ms. Concepcion: In your letter dated October 17, 2012, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client, E.H.L. Imports Ltd. The sample submitted will be returned. Style 922 is a women’s camisole constructed of 95% nylon and 5% spandex knit fabric. The garment features a hemmed bottom, flatlock stitching at the arm and neck openings and a scooped neckline. The applicable subheading for style 922 will be 6109.90.1065, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for T-shirts, singlets, tank tops and similar garments, knitted or crocheted: of other textile materials: of man-made fibers: women’s or girls: tank tops and singlets: women’s. The rate of duty will be 32% ad valorem. You assert that the proper classification should be 6212.90, HTSUS, which provides for other body supporting garments; however, this garment does not provide sufficient support to be considered a body supporting garment. Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.
