classification ruling.
The applicable HTS subheading for 20/20 Red Mercury will be

(HTS), which provides for radioactive elements and isotopes and
compounds other than those of subheadings 2844.10, 2844.20, and
2844.30; alloys, dispersions (including cermets), ceramic
products and mixtures containing these elements, isotopes or

be free.
Products may be subject to Nuclear Regulatory Commission
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
