Dear Mr. Lichstein:

In your letter dated November 2, 1998, you requested a tariff classification ruling.

It is roughly rectangular in shape, measures approximately 2 inches in length by 1/2 inch in width, and incorporates two threaded cylindrical projections by which it can be fitted onto the toilet seat. The sample is being returned as you requested.

The applicable subheading for the plastic bumpers will be 3926.90.9880, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other articles of plastics, other. The rate of duty will be 5.3 percent ad valorem.
