RE: The tariff classification of plastic and metal hooks from Malaysia.

Dear Ms. Alice Liu:

In your letter dated October 21, 2002, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

These hooks can be used to hang picture frames on concrete walls. The “Elite Hardwall Hooks” (S32F9031) are plastic hooks with metal nails to attach them to a wall. These hooks can be used to hang picture frames on wooden walls. The “Adhesive Assorted Metal Hooks” (S32F9049) are metal hooks with adhesive backing suitable for hanging small, light objects weighing less than one pound. As you requested, the samples are being returned.

The applicable subheading for the Handy Hardwall Hooks and the Elite Hardwall Hooks will be 3925.90.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for builders’ ware of plastics, not elsewhere specified or included: other. The rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad valorem.
