The applicable subheading for the leather jewelry boxes will be 4202.91.0090, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Trunks, suitcases...jewelry boxes...and similar containers, other, with outer surface of leather, other. The rate of duty will be 6.8% 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.
