RE: The tariff classification of multifilament yarn from Japan

Dear Ms. Coker:

In your undated letter, received here on August 24, 1995, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You have enclosed a sample of several meters of a multifilament yarn. You indicate that it is composed of 94.3% by weight of acrylonitrile copolymer, that it is a single untwisted yarn, and that the denier ranges from 13,936 to 14,504.

The applicable subheading for the yarn will be 5402.49.9040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for synthetic filament yarn (other than sewing thread), not put up for retail sale, including synthetic monofilament of less than 67 decitex; other yarn, single, untwisted or with a twist not exceeding 50 turns/m; other; other; monofilament; multifilament, untwisted or with twist of less than 5 turns per meter; other. The rate of duty will be 9.8 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
