RE: The tariff classification of dicyclopentadiene (DCPD) from
Japan.
Dear Mr. Corboy:
In your letter dated August 1, 1990, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for dicyclopentadiene (CAS# 77-73-
6) will be 2902.19.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for other cyclanes, cyclenes and
cycloterpenes. The rate of duty will be 5 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
