Dear Ms. Scholler:

In your letter dated July 3, 1996, resubmitted on July 30, 1996, on behalf of your client, Sanachem Ltd., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The subject product, Diuron technical, which has the Chemical Abstracts name of: N'-(3,4-Dichlorophenyl)-N,N- dimethylurea, is used as an herbicide.

The rate of duty will be 12.1 percent ad valorem.

Articles classifiable under subheading 2924.21.1600, HTS, which are products of South Africa, are entitled to duty-free treatment, under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP), upon compliance with all applicable regulations, if the GSP is renewed.
