RE: The tariff classification of the "Fastrac" from Canada.
Dear Ms. Campbell:
In your letter dated July 12, 1993, on behalf of The Perry
Corporation, Canada, you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The Fastrac is a plastic tool used to reinsert drawstrings
that have
come out of clothing. The Fastrac is approximately 7 inches in length, and
has a hole at the top for inserting the drawstring.
The applicable subheading for the Fastrac will be 3926.90.9590,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for
other articles of plastics, other. The rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad
valorem.
Goods classifiable under subheading 3926.90.9590, HTS, which have
originated in the territory of Canada, will be entitled to a 2.6 percent ad
valorem rate of duty under the United States-Canada Free Trade Agreement
(FTA) upon compliance with all applicable regulations.
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
