RE: The tariff classification of an integrated circuit with read only memory from Japan.

Dear Ms Keller :

In your letter dated March 5, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Sega of America, Inc.

You describe the subject merchandise as a metal oxide semiconductor (MOS), 16 bit read only memory (ROM), integrated circuit. The ROM will be placed inside a television game cartridge imported and sold by Sega of America, Inc. These games are used exclusively on the Genesis System. The ROM appears to be a silicon, monolithic integrated circuit.

The applicable subheading for the integrated circuit will be 8542.11.0065, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for "[integrated circuits: digital, monolithic, silicon, metal oxide memories:]," free of duty.

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
