RE: The tariff classification of Cyasorb UV-531 (2-hydroxy-4-n-
octoxybenzophenone CAS# 1843-05-6) from the Netherlands.
Dear Mr. Thoresz:
In your letter dated July 27, 1992, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for Cyasorb UV-531, a light
stabilizer, will be 2914.50.2000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTS), which provides for aromatic ketone-
phenols and ketones with other oxygen function. The rate of duty
will be 11 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
