RE: The tariff classification of N-Methylpiperazine (CAS No. 109-01-3) from Germany.
Dear Mr. Chivini:
In your letter dated July 9, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling for N-Methylpiperazine which you have
stated is a pharmaceutical intermediate.
The applicable subheading will be 2933.59.9500, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen hetero-atom(s) only; nucleic
acids and their salts: compounds containing a pyrimidine ring
(whether or not hydrogenated) or piperazine ring in the
structure; nucleic acids and their salts: other. 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,
