RE: The tariff classification of moxidectin technical concentrate (CAS# 113507-06-5) from Argentina.

Dear Ms. Davidovich:

In your letter dated January 19, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The applicable subheading for moxidectin technical concentrate will be 2932.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other heterocyclic compounds with oxygen hetero-atom(s) only. The rate of duty will be 3.7 percent ad valorem.

Articles classifiable under subheading 2932.90.5000, HTS, which are products of Argentina, are entitled to duty free treatment under the Generalized System of Preferences (GAP) 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
Area Director
