RE: The tariff classification of N-acetyl-thiazolidin-4-carboxylic
acid (ATCA) (CAS# 5025-82-1) from Italy.
Dear Mr. Kuehler:
In your letter dated May 5, 1993, and written on behalf of
your client, Wilbur-Ellis Company, you requested a tariff
classification ruling.
The applicable subheading for N-acetyl-thiazolidin-4-
carboxylic acid will be 2934.10.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule
of the United States (HTS), which provides for other heterocyclic
compounds containing an unfused thiazole ring in the structure.
The rate of duty will be 7.9 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
