The applicable subheading for the Omega-3 capsules will be 1504.20.6040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for Fats and oils and their fractions, of fish, other than liver oils...other...other. The rate of duty will be 1.5 cents per kilogram plus 5 percent ad valorem.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist John Maria at 212-466-5730.
