The applicable subheading for the material will be 3918.10.4010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for wall or ceiling coverings, with a backing of textile fibers, with a backing of other than man-made fibers. The duty rate will be 5.3 percent ad valorem. Goods classifiable under subheading 3918.10.4010, HTS, which have originated in the territory of Canada, will be entitled to a 3.7 percent ad valorem rate of duty under the United States- Canada Free Trade Agreement (FTA) upon compliance with all applicable regulations. This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section 177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177). 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.
