RE: The tariff classification of potassium carbonate from Japan.
Dear Mr. Bueher:
In your letter dated July 31, 1990, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for potassium carbonate will be
2836.40.1000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for potassium carbonate. The rate of duty
will be 1.9 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
