The garment measures 28 1/2 inches by 27 inches. It has an opening for the head, textile overlays, and embroidery. The item will be imported for children in unisex sizes small, medium and large. You have stated in your telephone conversation that the submitted sample is a size medium. We are unable to rule on a size small without an actual sample in that size.

The designated textile and apparel category may be subdivided into parts. If so, visa and quota requirements applicable to the subject merchandise may be affected. Since part categories are the result of international bilateral agreements which are subject to frequent renegotiations and changes, to obtain the most current information available, we suggest that you check, close to the time of shipment, the Status Report On Current Import Quotas (Restraint Levels), an internal issuance of the U.S. Customs Service, which is available for inspection at your local Customs office.

If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction. Sincerely, Jean F.
