RE: The tariff classification of a bracelet from China.

Dear Mr. Hoffacker:

In your letter dated September 19, 2007, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You have submitted a sample of a bangle bracelet, Style #159582. It is made of resin with a base metal frame and base metal stripe detail. Based on the value and structure of the bracelet, the metal imparts the essential character. Your sample will be returned as requested.

The applicable subheading for the bracelet will be 7117.19.9000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “Imitation jewelry: Of base metal, whether or not plated with precious metal: Other: Other’. The rate of duty will be 11% 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 Lawrence Mushinske at 646-733-3036.

Sincerely,
