RE: The tariff classification of a Daisy Toy Trolley with Candy from China.
Dear Ms. Wang:
In your letter dated July 11, 2002, you requested a tariff classification ruling.
The sample submitted, Daisy Toy Trolley with Candy, consists of a toy plastic luggage carrier (“trolley”) with two wheels and a handle that measures approximately 2 inches in height x 4 inches in width x 6 inches in length, and is filled with 3 lollipops, 2 candy lipsticks, 2 candy bracelets, and 1 candy necklace. The carrier has a see-through window, a snap lid, and is decorated with a sticker of “Daisy Duck.” Although packaged together, the trolley and the candy are not a set for Customs’ purposes and will be classified separately in their own appropriate tariff headings.
The applicable subheading for the candy will be 1704.90.3550, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Sugar confectionery (including white chocolate), not containing cocoa: Other: Confections or sweetmeats ready for consumption: Other: Other…Put up for retail sale: Other. The rate of duty will be 5.6 percent ad valorem.
The applicable subheading for the trolley will be 9503.90.0080, HTS, which provides for Other toys; reduced-size ("scale") models and similar recreational models, working or not; puzzles of all kinds; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other. The rate of duty will be free.
The Food and Drug Administration may impose additional requirements on the candy. You may contact the FDA at:
