RE: The tariff classification of a Cosmetic Travel Case or Bag
(Style # CP00230) from Taiwan.
Dear Ms. Hershman:
In your letter dated May 31, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The prospective import, a cosmetic travel case, consists of
the following items:
1. four empty plastic bottles
2. two empty plastic jars
3. one empty covered soap dish
4. a vinyl shower cap5. two square nail files
6. a loofa
These items are held in a cotton lace travel case with three
zippered compartments.
The applicable subheading for the cosmetic travel case or
bag will be 9605.00.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for travel sets for personal
toilet, sewing or shoe or clothes cleaning (other than manicure
and pedicure sets of heading 8214). The rate of duty will be 8.1
percent ad valorem.
Each set should be marked as clearly, legibly and indelibly
as possible with the proper country of origin.
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
