RE: The tariff classification of "Speed & Power" from Mexico.
Dear Mr. Cowen:
In your letter dated July 27, 1993, you requested a tariff
classification ruling on behalf of your client Multiform.
According to your request, the product named above is composed
principally of parafinic oil, detergents and several vegetable oils. It has
been designed to be used as an additive to lubricating oil for gas engines.
The applicable subheading for the product described above will be
3811.21.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for additives for lubricating oils. The rate of duty will be 12
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
