Sewn into the top hemmed edges is a flat wooden dowel. Attached onto the top are two textile fabric straps. The article is used for carrying fire logs.

The applicable subheading for the “Firewood Carrying Bag” will be 6307.90.9989, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other made up articles...Other. The rate of duty will be 7 percent ad valorem.
