Dear Mr. Malewicz:

In your letter dated December 30, 2004, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You indicate that it is a wellness device for children and adults that is used to train correct body posture. The item consists of two adjustable, elastic webbed straps attached to a flat plastic box that contains an audio device. Worn like a backpack, the arms are placed through each strap and are tightened. An audio signal is emitted when correct posture is not being maintained.

The applicable subheading for the posture trainer will be 6307.90.9889, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other made up textile articles, other. The rate of duty will be 7 percent ad valorem.

The sample will be returned as requested.
