Dear Mr. Corboy:
In your letter dated April 19, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for D-Serine (CAS # 312-84-5) will
be 2922.50.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other amino-alcohol-phenols, amino-
acid-phenols and other amino-compounds with oxygen function. The
rate of duty will be 7.6 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
