RE: The tariff classification of a children’s activity kit from China.

Dear Mr. Hoffacker:

In your letter dated June 29, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of K.B. Toys of Massachusetts, Inc.

A sample identified as a “Disney Princess Personalized Desk Set with Bonus Bracelet” (Item # 24489) was submitted for our examination and is being returned to you as requested. It consists of a number of items put up together for sale in a paperboard retail display box. Since the items appear to serve more than one particular need or specific activity, the kit will not be regarded for tariff purposes as “goods put up in sets for retail sale.” Accordingly, the various components will be classified separately. The individual items are listed below, each followed immediately by its applicable subheading in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), the rate of duty, and the tariff description.
