The applicable subheading for the binder-style catalog with samples will be 4911.10.0040, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for printed catalogs, price lists or trade notices, relating to offers...to sell or rent products of a foreign country.

A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported. If the documents have been filed without a copy, this ruling should be brought to the attention of the Customs officer handling the transaction. Sincerely, Jean F.
