The items in question are ceiling fans number SKU CO193, a 52" fan with five blades and C7122, a 42" fan with four blades. The fans are for permanent installation and have a self contained electric motor with an output of not less than 125 W. The applicable subheading for the ceiling fans will be 8414.51.0030, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for fans, for permanent installation, with a self-contained electric motor of an output not exceeding 125 W. The rate of duty will be 4.7 percent ad valorem. It is the opinion of this office that the instant items would be subject to anti-dumping (ADA) margins under the current Department of Commerce ADA findings on oscillating fans and ceiling fans as published in the Federal Register on October 25, 1991. Please contact your local port for the specific case numbers and percentages for each case. If you desire a formal scope ruling on the applicability of this determination to your product, please write directly to the Office of Compliance, Department of Commerce, Washington, D.C.

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.
