RE: The tariff classification ruling on two clock tables from
Taiwan.
Dear Mrs. Ratliff:
In your letter of August 15, 1990, you asked for a tariff
classification ruling on two clock tables from Taiwan.
You have submitted a photostat representation of your Model
No. 2227 clock table, a battery-operated quartz analog clock in
a Queen Anne-style wooden table that has three legs. The clock
table measures 23 inches high and 18 inches in diameter. A glass
crystal, which serves to protect the clock dial, also serves as
the table top. Model No. 2228 is a quartz analog clock in a
traditional style wooden table.
The applicable subheading for the clock tables will be
9105.91.80, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other clocks: other: battery or ac
powered: other. The rate of duty will be 30 cents each plus 6.9%
on the case (the wooden table) plus 5.3% on the battery.
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
