RE: The tariff classification of pages for a diary from Malaysia.

Dear Ms. Evans:

In your letter dated December 27, 2007, on behalf of Geiger, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The samples which you submitted are being retained by this office.

You are importing calendar pages, a note page and various miscellaneous pages for a diary that will be incorporated into a finished product in the United States. A marked sample was not submitted with your letter for review.

The applicable subheading for the diary pages will be 4820.10.2010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for Registers, account books, order books, . . . diaries and similar articles: Diaries and address books. 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/.

The marking statute, section 304, Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1304), provides that, unless excepted, every article of foreign origin (or its container) imported into the U.S. shall be marked in a conspicuous place as legibly, indelibly and permanently as the nature of the article (or its container) will permit, in such a manner as to indicate to the ultimate purchaser in the U.S. the English name of the country of origin of the article.

You also asked in your request for information, if the final product would be considered a product of the US and if it is considered of US origin would it have preferential treatment under the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) if imported into Canada or Mexico. It is recommended since you are planning to export these goods to Canada or Mexico that you seek a ruling from their Customs prior to export.

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 Patricia Wilson at 646-733-3037.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
Director,
