RE: The tariff classification of polypropylene plastic flower
sleeves from the Netherlands.
Dear Mr. Portades:
In your letter dated May 8, 1990, on behalf of Mt. Eden
International, you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The samples submitted with your letter are cone shaped
sleeves made of polypropylene plastics material, in various
sizes, used to pack flowers or plants.
The applicable subheading for the sleeves will be
3923.29.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for articles for the conveyance or packing
of goods...sacks and bags (including cones)...of other plastics.
The rate of duty will be 3 percent ad valorem.
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
