RE: The tariff classification of a construction warning fence
from Korea.
Dear Mr. Natale:
In your letter dated January 4, 1991, on behalf of Strong
Man Building Products, you requested a tariff classification
ruling.
The construction warning fence is composed of a polyester
base fabric mesh that is coated on both sides with a visible
plastics material. The fence is 5.5 feet by 150 feet. The fence
has heat sealed hems and aluminum grommets in the four corners.
The applicable subheading for the construction warning fence
will be 3925.90.0000 Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for builders' ware of plastics, not
elsewhere specified or included, other. The rate of duty will be
5.3 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
Area Director
