The sheeting of plastic imparts the essential character. The top opening is secured by a front flap with a hook and loop closure. A shoulder strap is permanently attached to the top of the case.

The applicable subheading for the camera carrying case will be 4202.92.9060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for trunks, suitcases, vanity caseswith outer surface of sheeting of plastic or of textile materialsother. The duty rate will be 18.6% ad valorem.
