RE: The tariff classification of trimethylolpropane from Brazil.
Dear Mr. Turienzo:
In your letter dated December 15, 1989, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for trimethylolpropane will be
2905.41.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for trimethylolpropane. The duty rate will
be 3.7 percent ad valorem.
Articles classifiable under subheading 2905.41.0000, HTS,
which are products of Brazil 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
