RE: The tariff classification of a 60 percent aqueous solution
of ammonium thioglycolate from Japan.
Dear Mr. Buehrer:
In your letter dated July 31, 1990, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for a 60 percent aqueous solution
of ammonium thioglycoclate (CAS# 5421-46-5) will be 2930.90.5050,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for other organo-sulphur compounds. The rate of duty
will be 3.7 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
