NY 874506 May 20, 1992 CLA-2-39:S:N:N3G:221 874506 CATEGORY: Classification TARIFF NO.: 3926.90.9010 Mr. Igor Guro 4477 Seneca Drive Okemos, MI 48864 RE: The tariff classification of plastic microdosers from Russia. Dear Mr. Guro: In your letter received in this office on May 11, 1992, you requested a tariff classification ruling. The plastic microdosers or micropipettes are used in laboratory procedures to transfer precise amounts of liquids from one vessel to another. When the pipette's plunger is pushed down, air is expelled from the tip of the pipette. Releasing the plunger then draws fluid into the tip. The fluid is expelled when the plunger is pressed again. The applicable subheading for the microdosers will be 3926.90.9010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other articles of plastics...laboratory ware. The rate of duty will be 80 percent ad valorem. 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. Maguire Area Director New York Seaport
