RE: The tariff classification of copper phthalocyanine crude
from Indonesia.
Dear Ms. O'Boyle:
In your letter dated July 18, 1991, and written on behalf of
your client, Chemtech Inc., you requested a tariff classification
ruling.
The applicable subheading for copper phthalocyanine crude
(CAS# 147-14-8) will be 3204.17.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTS), which provides for copper
phthalocyanine ([Phthalocyanato(2)] copper), not ready for use as
a pigment. The rate of duty will be 17.5 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
