RE: The tariff classification of light crude oil from Saudi
Arabia.
Dear Mr. Tharp:
In your letter dated October 24, 1994 you requested a tariff
classification ruling for light crude oil.
The applicable subheading will be 2709.00.2000, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals, crude:
testing 25 degrees API or more. The rate of duty will be 10.5
cents per barrel.
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
