Your eight Irish Scented Candles each consist of a scented wax candle poured in a 10cl (55mm D x 65mm H) or 30cl (80mm D x 95mm H) size clear glass container.

Each candle is wrapped in tissue paper and retail packed in a gift type white cardboard box sealed with an attractive label.

The applicable subheading for the eight Irish Scented Candles poured in glass containers and retail packed will be 3406.00.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for candles, tapers and the like. The rate of duty is free.
