RE: The tariff classification of Canson Satin papers, in several
weights, from France.
Dear Mr. Liptak:
In your letter dated January 26, 1993, on behalf of your
client, Canson-Talens, Inc., you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
Samples were submitted, and have been analyzed by the
Customs Laboratory, which reports that they are sheets of
greaseproof paper, and are not coated or impregnated. (Weights
of samples were found to be: 60.2, 105.9 and 180.8 grams per
square meter).
This decision contemplates that the papers will be imported
in the sizes and shapes prescribed in Chapter Note 48-7,
Harmonized Tariff Schedules.
The applicable subheading for the Canson Satin papers, as
described, will be 4806.20.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTS), which provides for: Greaseproof papers.
The rate of duty will be Free.
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
