RE: The tariff classification of a reclamation and recycling system from Canada.

Dear Mr. Mooers:

In your letter dated December 14, 1990 on behalf of C.F.C. Tek Inc. you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The C.F.C. reclamation and recycling system recovers both liquid and gaseous freon from refrigeration and air conditioning equipment. It also purifies the refrigerant after its recovery.

The applicable subheading for the C.F.C. reclamation and recycling system will be 8421.29.0050, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other filtering or purifying machinery and apparatus for gases. The rate of duty will be 3.9 percent ad valorem.

Goods classifiable under subheading 8421.29.0050, HTS, which have originated in the territory of Canada, will be entitled to a 2.3 percent 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
Area Director
