RE: The tariff classification of footwear from England.
Dear Ms. Hashimoto:
In your letter dated March 16, 1992, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
Style #1006 is a man's shoe with a leather upper and a
rubber and/or plastic sole. It has a 3 eyelet lace closure and
welt construction.
The applicable subheading for this shoe will be 6403.99.40,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for footwear with outer soles of rubber, plastics,
leather or composition leather and uppers of leather, not
covering the ankle, of welt construction. The rate of duty will
be 5 percent ad valorem.
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
Area Director
