The holding capacity of the sink is 10.5 gallons. Your letter of inquiry states that the unit, mounting hardware and polyvinyl chloride drainpipe are packaged together for retail sale. The essential character is imparted by the sink.

The rate of duty will be 6.3 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 Joan Mazzola at 646-733-3023.
