The applicable subheading for the saw blades will be 8202.99.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Other saw blades, and parts thereof: Other (including parts). The rate of duty will be Free.
This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).
A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Melvyn Birnbaum at 212-637-7017.
