RE: The tariff classification of parts of cooking ranges from
Turkey
Dear Mr. Lawrence:
In your letter dated June 9, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The merchandise is a cast iron burner cap and a cast iron
burner grate used on a domestic gas range. The grates may be
square, rectangular or round. They sit above the burner to
support the pot or pan during cooking. Each of these items will
be enamelled after importation.
The applicable subheading for the cap and grate will be
7321.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for stoves, ranges, grates, cookers ... and
parts thereof, of iron or steel, parts, of articles in subheading
7321.11.30 [stove or ranges], other. The duty rate will be 3.4
percent ad valorem.
Articles classifiable under subheading 7321.90.5000, HTS,
which are products of Turkey are entitled to duty free treatment
under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) upon compliance
with all applicable regulations.
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
