RE: The tariff classification of a mountain vine swag from China
Dear Ms. Brown:
In your letter dated March 27, 1995, on behalf of Sims
Pottery, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The ruling was requested on a mountain vine swag. A sample
measuring approximately 2 inches across and 30 inches long was
submitted. It consists of about a dozen twig-like stems of vine
held together by another piece of vine wrapped around the others
in a spiral fashion. The vine swag is bent in a slight curve and
is coated with lacquer. A swag is used for decorating.
The applicable subheading for the vine swag will be
4602.10.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
Annotated (HTSUSA), which provides for basketwork, wickerwork and
other articles, made directly to shape from plaiting materials or
made up from articles of heading 4601; of vegetable materials;
other; other; wickerwork. 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
