percent pure from either Czechoslovakia or Korea.
Dear Ms. Fiegl:
In your letter dated February 26, 1992, you requested a
tariff classification ruling.
In your ruling request you asked that we support your
request for a free rate of duty. Please note that the United
States Customs Service does not set rates of duty. They are
enacted into law by the Congress of The United States
The applicable subheading for this product will be
2804.61.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for silicon , 99.99 pure. The rate of duty
will be 3.7 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
