RE: The tariff classification of musical instrument cases from
Taiwan.
Dear Mr. Hamadi:
In your letter dated March 11, 1992, on behalf of Ace
Products, you requested a tariff classification ruling on certain
musical instrument cases.
You have submitted five samples of musical instrument cases
with your request. They are items 10-KB, 8-KB, 5-KB, EB-212 and
GB-1000B.
Items 10-KB, 8-KB and 5-KB, are keyboard cases constructed
of 100% nylon textile material.
Items EB-212 and GB-1000B are guitar cases constructed of
100% nylon textile material.
The applicable subheading for Items 10-KB, 8-KB, 5-KB, EB-
212 and GB-1000B, the musical instrument cases of 100% nylon
textile material, will be 4202.92.5000, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for musical
instrument cases. The duty rate 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
