RE: The tariff classification of metallic strip ribbon from Taiwan.

Dear Ms. Aldinger:

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

You have submitted a sample spool of decorative metallic ribbon, item no. 93081. The spool contains 20 meters of ribbon. The ribbon will be available in three metallic colors: red, green and gold. The ribbon is made of untwisted extruded man-made fiber material which has been cut into strips of ribbon measuring 5 millimeters in width. Please note that even a small variation in the width may change the applicable classification provision shown below.

The applicable subheading for the ribbon will be 5605.00.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for metalized yarn, whether or not gimped, being textile yarn, or strip or the like of heading 5404 or 5405, combined with metal in the form of thread, strip or powder or covered with metal; metal coated or metal laminated man-made filament or strip or the like, ungimped, and untwisted or with twist of less than 5 turns per meter. The rate of duty will be 15 percent ad valorem.

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
