Dear Mr. Glover: In your letter dated July 7, 2006, on behalf of Lakeshore Learning Materials, you requested a tariff classification ruling. A sample was provided with your letter. The Keep Safe Diary is a portable desk or “safe” composed of molded plastics. The desk automatically locks when folded and closed and can be unlocked by entering the correct sequence code for the four musical buttons on the lid. The set includes a pen, pad of paper and self-adhesive plastic stickers that can be used to decorate the desk. When opened the desk provides a writing surface. A small hole in the upper corner of the opened desk can be used as a penholder. The desk, pen, paper pad and plastic stickers are packaged together for retail sale, and are classified together in the tariff provision applicable to the component that imparts the essential character of the set. In this instance, the plastic portable desk imparts the essential character of the set. The sample is being returned as you requested.
