The applicable subheading for the product from Estonia will be 2846.90.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for rare earth oxide mixtures except those containing cerium. This subheading is duty free.

The applicable subheading for the product from China will be, HTS, 3823.90.3900. This subheading is duty free.

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
