RE: The tariff classification of a worklight from Taiwan
Dear Ms. Webster:
In your letter dated February 4, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling. You have submitted a sample of the style
T-6070 worklight.
The imported product is a 12-volt, 8-watt fluorescent
worklight which is designed to be principally used with motor
vehicles. The product measures approximately 18 inches in total
length. It has a 15 foot cord with cigarette and battery clip, a
plastic hook (that may be attached to the interior area of the
raised car hood), and a plastic upright support stand. The
fluorescent worklight operates by plugging the cord into the
motor vehicle's cigarette lighter receptacle.
The applicable subheading for the style T-6070 fluorescent
worklight will be 8512.20.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for other electrical lighting
equipment of a kind used on motor vehicles. The rate of duty
will be free.
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
