The applicable subheading for Navy Blue HE2R and Navy Blue

rate of duty will be 15 percent ad valorem.
The applicable subheading for Green HE4BD will be
3204.16.2000, HTS2. The rate of duty will be 8.3 percent ad

The applicable subheading for Green 19A and Green HE4B
cannot be determined without additional information. Please
resubmit your request for a ruling on these two products and
include a chemical description of each indicating how these
products differ from Green HE4BD. If they are chemically
different furnish CAS numbers for each.
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.
