In your letter dated May 15, 2003, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The subject product, Methyl 2,2,2-trichloroacetimidate, is a nonaromatic, halogenated imine derivative indicated for use as a pharmaceutical intermediate.

The general rate of duty will be 3.7 percent ad valorem.

Articles classifiable under subheading 2925.20.9000, HTS, which are products of Slovakia may be entitled to duty free treatment under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) upon compliance with all applicable regulations.
