RE: The tariff classification of a Halloween spider web decoration from the Philippines.

Dear Mr. Crago:

In your letter dated September 21, 2006, you requested a classification ruling.

You have submitted photographs depicting a Halloween Spider Web Decoration identified as item number A079FA00623. It is composed of 70 percent nylon fabric wrapped around a frame that is made of 30 percent galvanized iron. The decoration measures 48 inches by 48 inches. This decoration is intended for sale to retail stores for their clients for and during the Halloween holiday.

The applicable subheading for the Halloween Spider Web Decoration identified as item number A079FA00623 will be 9505.90.6000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for "Festive, carnival or other entertainment articles, including magic tricks and practical joke articles; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other." The rate of duty will be free.

  Articles classifiable under subheading 9505.90.6000, HTSUS, that are products of the Philippines are currently entitled to duty-free treatment under the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) upon compliance with all applicable regulations. The GSP, however, is subject to modification and periodic suspension, which may affect the status of your transaction at the time of entry for consumption or withdrawal from warehouse. To obtain current information on GSP, check our Web site at www.cbp.gov and search for the term "GSP."

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 Alice Wong at 646-733-3026.

Sincerely,

Robert B. Swierupski
