RE: The tariff classification of ceiling fans from China
Dear Mr. Coe:
In your letter dated April 14, 1994 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The items in question are ceiling fans number SKU CO193, a 52"
fan with five blades and C7122, a 42" fan with four blades. The
fans are for permanent installation and have a self contained
electric motor with an output of not less than 125 W.
The applicable subheading for the ceiling fans will be
8414.51.0030, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for fans, for permanent installation, with
a self-contained electric motor of an output not exceeding 125 W.
The rate of duty will be 4.7 percent ad valorem.
It is the opinion of this office that the instant items would
be subject to anti-dumping (ADA) margins under the current
Department of Commerce ADA findings on oscillating fans and ceiling
fans as published in the Federal Register on October 25, 1991.
Please contact your local port for the specific case numbers and
percentages for each case. If you desire a formal scope ruling on
the applicability of this determination to your product, please
write directly to the Office of Compliance, Department of Commerce,
Washington, D.C.
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
