RE: The tariff classification of a Calculator from China
Dear Ms. Dobbs:
In your letter dated June 25, 1992, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The merchandise under consideration involves a portable
calculator that is approximately six inches in length, four
inches in width, and 1/2 of an inch in depth. The unit
incorporates a flip-up eight digit display unit, 19 key
keyboard, and is dual powered (battery and solar).
The applicable subheading for the Calculator will be
8470.10.0040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for electronic calculators capable of
operation without an external source of power. 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
