RE: The tariff classification of manganese sulphate from
Columbia.
Dear Mr. Cline:
In your letter dated February 10, 1992, you requested a
tariff classification ruling on behalf of your client, Industrial
Chemical & Supply Company.
According to your inquiry, this product will be imported in
an aqueous
solution and in powder form.
The applicable subheading for this product in either form
will be 2833.29.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for other sulfates. The rate of duty
will be 3.7 percent ad valorem.
Chemicals produced and exported from Columbia to the United
States which are classifiable in 2833.29.5000, HTS, are free of
duty under the Generalized System of Preferences, provided all
appropiate requirements have been met.
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
