Dear Ms. O’Brien: In your letter dated November 5, 2015, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The first sample submitted, identified as item number 220506, the Black Gauze Drape, consists of a drape of man-made textile fabric that measures approximately 24 inches in width by 180 inches in length. The black drape features raw, torn edges that suggest a scary ripped curtain. The insubstantial drape is purely a one-time use decoration, and is designed to hang from a doorway, a window, or a ceiling as an eerie home decoration for Halloween. The drape will be marketed and sold for Halloween. The second sample submitted, identified as item number 844448, is an unlined men’s vest.  The garment is constructed from 100% polyester knit fabric coated with a compact plastic that completely obscures the underlying fabric.  The vest features a full front opening with 3 snap closure, fringe at the left and right shoulder and two pockets at the waist. Your samples will be returned as requested. The applicable subheading for item number 220506 will be 9505.90.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “Festive, carnival or other entertainment articles, including magic tricks and practical joke articles; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other.” The rate of duty will be Free.
