The merchandise under consideration is the LED “7 eleven” logo sign. The sign is comprised of a logo face, a left and a right stripe face, an end panel, roof rails, eaves and an assembly tool kit. The sign’s components are imported from various countries and assembled in Mexico. The panels have their own source of light that consist of two small power supply and two stripes of LED. The end panel is a plastic cover for both ends of the sign. The back board, LED reflector, rail roof, and eaves are made of aluminum. The curved side and front panels are made of plastic material. The stripes of LEDs are 1200 lumens.
The applicable subheading for the LED illuminated sign will be 9405.60.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “Illuminated signs, illuminated nameplates and the like: Other.” The general rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad valorem.
