RE: The tariff classification of eyeglass cases with designer
names Calvin Klein and Fendi from Italy.
Dear Mr. Paciaffi:
In your letter dated June 28, 1995, on behalf of Marcolin
USA, you requested a tariff classification ruling for eyeglass
cases with designer names Calvin Klein an Fendi.
You have submitted three samples of Calvin Klein and Fendi
eyeglass cases with your request. The samples submitted are
spectacle cases manufactured of a piece good outer covering which
is a composition of textile materials and plastics. The piece
good is considered to be a textile material of Section XI,
Harmonized Tariff System of the United States (HTSUSA). The
exterior surface is of plastics material.
The applicable subheading for the eyeglass cases of plastics
will be 4202.32.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for articles of a kind normally
carried in the pocket or in the handbag, with outer surface of
sheeting of plastic, other. The rate of duty will be 20 percent
ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. 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. Maguire
