RE: The tariff classification of a jewelry box

Dear Ms. Chan:

In your letter dated Aug. 16, 2006, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You submitted a sample of a jewelry box that measures 2½” tall x 2” wide x 1½” deep. It suggests the shape of a shopping bag and opens by spreading apart at the top; the bottom is hinged. Each side has a string handle. The front has a clear plastic window through which the contents may be seen. The inside contains a foam pad. The exterior is said to be paper but it has a coating of plastic.

The applicable subheading for the jewelry box will be 4202.92.9060, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for other containers, other, with outer surface of sheeting of plastic, other, other, other. The rate of duty will be 17.6% ad valorem.

Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided on World Wide Web at http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/.

This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Part 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If you have any questions regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist 341 at 646-733-3041.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
