RE: Flaring tool
Dear Mr. Liberati:
We have been asked to review New York Ruling 833876 of
December 1, 1988, and have determined that an error was made
during the original classification of your flaring tool. The
proper classification for your merchandise under the Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUSA) is heading
8205.59.10. This heading provides for "Handtools...not elsewhere
specified or included...Pipe tools,and parts thereof."
The applicable rate of duty for heading 8205.59.10, HTSUSA,
is 9 percent ad valorem.
Sincerely,
John Durant, Director
Commercial Rulings Division
