Your sample is being returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for the "Diamond-Cut Birthstone Clock" will be 9103.10.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for clocks with watch movements...Battery powered: with opto-electronic display only. The rate of duty will be 3.9% on the movement and case.

The applicable subheading for the battery will be 9103.10.2020, HTS, which provides for travel clocks: battery. The rate of duty will be 5.3%.

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,
