RE: The tariff classification of Zillions Counting Pig Toy Bank from China

Dear Ms. Sudsinsunthom:

In your letter date January 15 2007, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You are requesting the tariff classification on a product that is described as a Zillions Counting Pig Toy Bank. There is no designated item number indicated for the product. The article is a large, translucent pig bank with a digital reader that indicates the amount of money in the bank. This toy encourages a child to save money and tells them the amount in the bank deposited. The toys will be classifiable in Chapter 95 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States as toys representing animals.

The applicable subheading for the Zillions Counting Pig Toy Bank will be 9503.49.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for toys representing animals or non-human creatures and parts and accessories thereof. The rate of duty will be Free.

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).

Pursuant to title 19 United States Code, Section 3005 The Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States is in the process of being amended to reflect changes recommended by the World Customs Organization. The amendments are expected to affect the classification of your merchandise. On January 4, 2007, Presidential Proclamation 8097 containing these changes was published in the Federal Register. See 72 FR 453, Volume 72, No. 2. The proclaimed changes are effective for goods entered or withdrawn from warehouse for consumption on or after February 3, 2007. Once those changes are in effect, it is anticipated that your merchandise will be classified in 9503.00.0000 HTSUS.

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 Tom McKenna at 646-733-3025.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
