RE: The tariff classification of an unfinished sport bag from
Argentina.
Dear Ms. Keller:
In your letter dated February 9, 1993, on behalf of Allen W.
Bram DBA E. Christopher Firearms Co., you requested a tariff
classification ruling on an unfinished sport bag.
You have submitted a sample and brochure of a leather sport
bag which has been designed to contain shooting accessories. In
your letter of January 7, 1993, you state that the article will
be imported in an unassembled condition from Argentina. The
finished article will be sewn in the United States.
The applicable subheading for the unfinished sport bag of
leather will be 4202.91.0030, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the
United States (HTS), which provides for Other: With outer surface
of leather, of composition leather or of patent leather...
Travel, sports and similar bags. The duty rate will be 6.8
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
