dinitrobenzotrifluoride (CAS# 29091-09-6) from Brazil.
Dear Mr. Hayakawa:
In your letter dated June 4, 1992, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for 2,4-dichloro-3,5-dinitrobenzo-
trifluoride will be 2904.90.4700, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of
the United States (HTS), which provides for other aromatic
sulfonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives of hydrocarbons.
The rate of duty will be 3.7 cents per kilogram plus 15.9 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
