RE: The tariff classification of Rhodianox, also known as Uvi Nox
1494 Anti-Oxidant and Gafenox 1494 Anti-Oxidant, (2,6-dibutyl-4-
nonylphenol CAS# 4306-88-1) from France.
Dear Mr. Meola:
In your letter dated May 25, 1993, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for Rhodianox will be 2907.19.2000,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
alkylphenols. The rate of duty will be 11 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
