RE: The tariff classification of Dipentaerythritol (CAS# 126-58-
9) from India
Dear Mr. Hallock:
In your letter dated March 20, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling on behalf of HiCorp.
The applicable subheading for the Dipentaerythritol (CAS#
126-58-9) will be 2909.49.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for other ether-alcohols and
their halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives
not elsewhere specified. The rate of duty will be 12.3 percent
ad valorem.
Articles classifiable under subheading 2909.49.5000, HTS,
which are products of other ether-alcohols not elsewhere
specified are entitled to duty free treatment under the
Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) upon compliance with all
applicable regulations.
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
