It is a folded paper card, 3" x 3 3/4" in the closed position, whose face is printed with a Christmas message and related pictures. (The printing appears to have been done by a non-lithographic process.) The interior and back are blank, suitable for writing "To/From" information and the like. Accompanying the card is a miniature, spring-type clothespin intended to facilitate attachment to a gift package. The item will be imported and sold in retail blister packs containing four or six tags each. The applicable subheading for the #92100-M printed gift tags with mini clothespins will be 4821.10.4000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for paper and paperboard labels of all kinds, printed other than by a litho-graphic process. The rate of duty will be 2.5%. 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.
