RE: The tariff classification of hexamethyldisiloxane from
Germany.
Dear Mr. Corboy:
In your letter received by this office on October 29, 1992,
you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for hexamethyldisiloxane (CAS#
107-46-0) will be 2931.00.5010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for other organo-silicon
compounds. The rate of duty will be 3.7 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
