RE: The tariff classification of a tissue box wall holder from
Taiwan.
Dear Mr. O'Neill:
In your letter dated December 4, 1991, on behalf of LuMar
International Ent., Inc., you requested a tariff classification
ruling.
The sample submitted with your letter is a tissue box holder
made of molded plastics material. The holder is intended for
permanent installation on a wall using either two screws affixed
through screw holes on the back of the holder, or using the two
strips of adhesive tape attached to the back of the holder. Four
prongs, two on the bottom of the holder and two on a spring
loaded top portion, allow a cardboard tissue box to be securely
attached onto the holder.
The applicable subheading for the tissue box wall holder
will be 3925.90.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for builders' ware of plastics, not
elsewhere specified or included, other. The rate of duty will be
5.3 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
