RE: The tariff classification of marmalades from England

Dear Mr. Sidoli:

In your undated letter, received on March 17, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Four products are identified in your letter - Orange and Cider with Liquore (sic), Seville Orange with Liquore, Orange and Lemon with Liquore, and Lemon and Ginger with Liquore. All are jelly-like spreads composed of sugar, fruit, water, and liqueur. Orange and Cider contains added cider, and the lemon and ginger contains 2.7 percent ginger. All are prepared by boiling, holding for 20 minutes, and vacuum sealing in glass jars. The marmalades are put up in containers holding 1.5, 4, 8, and 12 ounces, net weight.

The applicable subheading for the Seville Orange with Liqueur and Orange and Cider with Liqueur will be 2007.91.4000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for marmalades... other...citrus fruit...orange marmalade. The rate of duty will be 5.5 percent ad valorem.

The applicable subheading for Lemon and Ginger with Liqueur and Orange and Lemon with Liqueur will be 2007.91.9000, HTS, which provides for marmalades...other...citrus fruit...other. The rate of duty will be 7 percent ad valorem.

The importation of this merchandise may be subject to restrictions imposed by the United States Department of Agriculture and/or Food and Drug Administration. It is suggested you contact these agencies directly for further information.

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.
