RE: The tariff classification of Isocyanuric Acid (CAS 108-80-5) from
China.
Dear Ms. Quintana:
In your letter dated March 3, 1997, on behalf of your client Shikoku
International, you requested a tariff classification ruling for
Isocyanuric Acid which you have stated will be used in the making of
sanitizing agents.
The applicable subheading will be 2933.69.6050, Harmonized Tariff
Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for heterocyclic
compounds with nitrogen hetero-atom(s) only: compounds containing an
unfused triazine ring (whether or not hydrogenated) in the structure:
other. The rate of duty will be 3.5 percent ad valorem.
Isocyanuric Acid would be subject to anti-dumping (ADA) margins
under the current Department of Commerce ADA findings if imported from
Japan.
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 Thomas Brady at 212-466-5747.
