Dear Mr. Anderson: In your letter dated July 15, 2003, you requested a tariff classification ruling. You submitted a sample of a Snow Slickster™ identified as item number 39006. The item is a rectangular piece of polyvinyl chloride that measures approximately 42 inches in length and 20 inches in width that attaches to a child’s body by use of a nylon belt. When attached, the item hangs down behind the child who pulls the Snow Slickster™ between his/her legs and sits down on it. Two small holes in front are used as “handles.” The Snow Slickster™ is a toy intended to provide amusement to a child 5 years of age or older who will sit or on this “snow carpet” and slide down snow-covered hills. The item will be imported in assorted colors. The applicable subheading for the Snow Slickster™ identified as item number 39006 will be 9503.90.0080, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for “Other toys; reduced-size ("scale") models and similar recreational models, working or not; puzzles of all kinds; parts and accessories thereof: Other: Other.” The rate of duty will be free. 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.
