RE: The tariff classification of an injectable transponder and access control tags from Thailand.

Dear Mr. Leeds:

In your letter dated March 19, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

Your letter describes the subject merchandise as follows:

The injectable transponder, identified in your letter as model TX14XX, and the parts of access control tags, identified as model TX1309 SERIES

The applicable subheading for the model TX14XX injectable transponder series and the model TX1309 series control tags will be 8529.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for "[other parts suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of heading 8525 to 8528]." The rate of duty will be 5.9 percent ad valorem.

Articles classifiable under subheading 8529.90,5000, HTS, which are products of Thailand are entitled to duty free treatment under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) 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
