A sample was submitted, which will be returned, as requested.
It is a notebook with blank unlined paper pages, spiral bound into
covers of unprinted white paperboard. In its condition as imported
the notebook will have a further outer cover of 100% cotton denim,
with pockets into which the paperboard cover is slipped. Your
article number for this product is Style # 060-801093. The overall
dimensions of the notebook are 9 1/2 inches by 6 1/2 inches.
The applicable subheading for the notebook as described will
be 4820.10.4000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States

The rate of duty will be Free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section

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
