RE: The tariff classification of bags from India.
Dear Ms. Houba:
In your letter dated March 22, 1993, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The submitted swatch is a representative sample of the
material used for the manufacture of bags. The swatch is
composed of woven jute fabric. The bags are used for the
collection of compost waste.
The applicable subheading for the bags will be 6305.10.0000,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for sacks and bags, of a kind used for the packing of
goods: Of jute or of other textile bast fibers of heading 5303.
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
