RE: The Tariff Classification of a “Gasket” from Japan.

Dear Mr. Shaw:

In your letter dated April 19, 2000 you requested a tariff classification ruling.

The applicable subheading for the plastic battery “gasket” will be 8506.90.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for parts of primary cells and primary batteries. The rate of duty will be 2.7 percent ad valorem.

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 David Curran at 212-637-7049.

Sincerely,
