RE: The tariff classification of calcium carbonate from Peru.
Dear Mr. Turienzo:
In your letter dated December 14, 1989, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for calcium carbonate will be
2836.50.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for calcium carbonate. This subheading is
duty free.
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
