RE: The tariff classification of uridine from West Germany.
Dear Mr. Holzapfel:
In your letter dated May 25, 1990, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for uridine (CAS# 58-96-8) will be
2934.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other heterocyclic compounds. The rate
of duty will be 7.9 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
