RE: The tariff classification of a decorative ceramic bowl from China.

Dear Ms. Gibson:

In your letter dated April 17, 1998, you requested a tariff classification ruling. Sample is being returned as requested.

The sample submitted is a decorative ceramic bowl with pedestal, style number 602182, which measures approximately 4 1/2 inches high with a top diameter of 6 1/2 inches and a base diameter of 4 inches. It possesses a gold-colored exterior and interior.

You state that this item should be properly classified under subheading 6914.90.8000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other ceramic articles. However, since the subject bowl is of the class or kind of merchandise that is provided for elsewhere, consideration of classification under the above subheading is precluded.

The applicable subheading for this decorative ceramic bowl will be 6913.90.5000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other ornamental ceramic articles. The rate of duty will be 6.2 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 George Kalkines at 212-466-5794.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
