RE: The tariff classification of dog bandana from China

Dear Ms. Mayard:

In your letter dated December 22, 2014, you requested a tariff classification ruling. You have submitted a sample, which is being returned to you.

The submitted sample is a textile bandana worn around the neck by dogs. It is triangular in shape and measures approximately 7” at the widest point x 7” in height.

The applicable subheading for the bandana will be 4201.00.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for saddlery and harness for any animal (including traces, leads, knee pads, muzzles, saddle cloths, saddle bags, dog coats and the like), of any material: other. The duty rate will be 2.8% ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Vikki Lazaro at [email protected].

Sincerely,
