RE: The tariff classification of a "Crazy Mouse" from China
Dear Ms. Blair:
In your letter dated October 15, 1998 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
As indicated by the submitted sample, the "Crazy Mouse" is a
battery operated representation of a mouse and is intended as a
toy for use by a cat. When activated, the mouse moves back and
forth in a circular motion by means of three built-in plastic
wheels on its underside.
The applicable subheading for the "Crazy Mouse" will be
8543.89.9695, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for other electrical machines and
apparatus, ..., not specified or included elsewhere in Chapter
85, HTS. The rate of duty will be 2.9 percent ad valorem.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177
of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above
should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time
this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions
regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist David
Curran at 212-466-5680.
Sincerely,
