Dear Mr. Yi:

In your undated letter, received in this office on October 17, 2005, on behalf of Fibre-Craft Materials Corp., you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The foam sheets and self-adhesive stickers are composed of ethylene vinyl acetate (EVA) plastic. The sheets are punched with holes for the ring clips so that the sheets can form a scrapbook. Though the stickers can be used to decorate the scrapbook, the assortment includes hundreds of extra stickers for use as miscellaneous supplies for a multitude of creative projects. The label states that the supplies are great for day-care centers, school projects, parties and scrapbooking.

As you requested, the sample will be returned.
