This lamp, which can be used both vertically and horizontally, is designed to be principally used for traveling and late night reading or studying.

The applicable subheading for the "Glo-Page Read 'N Write Night Light," sku number X9916, will be 9405.40.8000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other electric lamps and lighting fittings. The rate of duty will be 3.9 percent ad valorem.
