The stated ingredients are wheat flake, glutinous rice, mung beans, peanuts, red beans, millet, peas, longans, sugar, and water. The product is packed in a pull-top metal can with a plastic lid, in which is stored a collapsible plastic spoon.

The applicable subheading for the congee will be 2104.10.0060, HTS, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for soups and broths...other...other. The rate of duty will be 7 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.
