RE: The tariff classification of Gilugel SIL5 from Germany.
Dear Mr. Jiuliano:
In your letter dated March 10, 1992, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
According to your letter Gilugel SIL5 is composed of
aluminum magnesium hydroxy stearate and cyclomethicone pentamer.
The applicable subheading for the product described above
will be 3823.90.5050, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United
States (HTS), which provides for chemical mixtures not elsewhere
indicated. The rate of duty will be 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
