Dear Mr. Corboy:
In your letter dated June 17, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for pyromellitic dianhydide (CAS #
89-32-7) will be 2917.39.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for aromatic anhydrides of

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
