RE: The tariff classification of Ninja Turtle Calculators from
China.
Dear Ms. Powers:
In your letter dated October 10, 1990, on behalf of Hope
Industries, you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The merchandise in question involves a "Ninja Turtle"
calculator. This 4-function, one-memory calculator contains
batteries, and has a common LCD display. This "Ninja Turtle"
calculator has the name of "Raphael", and is approximately 4-
inches in length by 2-inches in width, and has a depth of 1/4-
inches. The upper portion of the calculator has the head of
"Ninja Turtle" which when slid in the upward position exposes the
LCD display of the calculator.
The applicable subheading for the "Ninja Turtle" calculators
will be 8470.10.0060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for other electronic calculators
capable of operation without an external source of power. 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
