Dear Mr. Shu:
In your letter dated January 3, 1991 you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The prospective import is a 4 X 2 inch decorated red textile
bow (barrette) with white poker dots, made of nylon textile,
attached to a metal clasp.
The applicable subheading for the Headflowers or Butterfly
Knots (barrette) will be 9615.19.6010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTS), which provides for combs, hair-slides
and the like, other. The rate of duty will be 11 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
