RE: The tariff classification of an alcohol free wine from West
Germany.
Dear Mr. Anderson:
In your letter dated August 3, 1990, on behalf of the
importer Selected Wines of Europe, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
A sample and descriptive information were included with your
request. The subject merchandise is Huesgen Extra Light, and is
described as a white wine with less than 0.05 percent of alcohol.
The applicable subheading for the Huesgen Extra Light will
be 2202.90.9090, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for waters...and other nonalcoholic
beverages...other...other ...other. The rate of duty will be 0.3
cents per liter.
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
