NY C82463 December 18, 1997 CLA-2-39:RR:NC:2:224 C82463 CATEGORY: Classification TARIFF NO.: 3926.90.7500 Marjorie Shapiro Samuel Shapiro & Company, Inc. The Bourse Building, Suite 735 111 S. Independence Mall East Philadelphia, PA 19106-2521 RE: The tariff classification of an inflatable giant sneaker and an inflatable saxophone from China. Dear Ms. Shapiro: In your letter dated December 5, 1997, you requested a tariff classification ruling, on behalf of Unique Industries, Inc., your client. You are requesting the tariff classification on various unrelated items (except for the inflatable items). Since the items in a single ruling request should be of the same class or kind, this office will address only the classification on the inflatable items. To receive classifications on the other items you should submit a separate ruling request for each item. The first inflatable article is a representation of a giant sneaker, item number 95166. The second inflatable item represents a saxophone, item number 95139. All the samples are being returned so that they may be submitted with future ruling requests. The applicable subheading for the inflatable sneaker and the inflatable saxophone will be 3926.90.7500, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for "Pneumatic mattresses and other inflatable articles, not elsewhere specified or included." The rate of duty will be 4.2 percent ad valorem. 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 Tom McKenna at 212-466-5475. Sincerely, Robert B. Swierupski Director, National Commodity Specialist Division
