have stated is a pharmaceutical intermediate.
The applicable subheading will be 2903.69.7000, Harmonized
Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons (con.): halogenated

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry

brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the
transaction.
