RE: The tariff classification of beds from China.

Dear Ms. Stankey:

In your letter dated January 31, 2008, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

You have submitted descriptive literature for B551 Martini Suite Queen/King/Cal King Upholstered Beds.

All the components are made of wood but completely covered in 100% polyester fabric. You will import the components together to make a complete bed or separately as needed.
