RE: The tariff classification of isonicotinic acid from Japan.
Dear Mr. Corboy:
In your letter dated August 1, 1991, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for isonicotinic acid (CAS# 55-22-
1) will be 2933.39.4700, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for other heterocyclic compounds
containing an unfused pyridine ring in the structure: products
described in additional U.S. note 3 to section VI. The rate of
duty will be 13.5 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
