RE: The tariff classification of "Royal Treasures" from Dubai,
United Arab Emirates
Dear Ms. Nemia:
In your letter dated June 10, 1995, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
A sample of the "Royal Treasures" was submitted with your
inquiry and is being retained for our reference. The item is
composed of frankincense and myrrh contained in a piece of silk
organza fabric held in place by a gold ribbon. The silk organza
fabric is packing for the frankincense and myrrh and will be
classified with the goods.
The applicable subheading for "Royal Treasures" will be
1301.90.9090, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for lac; natural gums, resins, gum-resins
and balsams: other: other: other. The rate of duty will be free.
For marking purposes, the item must be marked with the
country of origin.
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
