RE: The tariff classification of garden ornaments from China

Dear Mr. Hoffacker:

In your letter dated August 12, 2001, on behalf of Big Lots Stores, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The merchandise is 3 styles of garden ornaments made of steel and glass. Ranging in size from 8 inches to 12 inches long, the ornaments resemble a snail, a pig, and a frog. The shape of the animal is formed by steel wire, and the body and head, by various sized blown glass balls. In the opinion of this office, the decorative effect of the garden ornaments is produced equally by the metal portion and the glass portion.

The applicable subheading for the garden ornaments will be 8306.29.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for statuettes and other ornaments, and parts thereof, other. The rate of duty will be free.

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 James Smyth at 212-637-7008.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director
