RE:  The tariff classification of a plastic blanket bag from
China.

Dear Ms. Duncan:

     In your letter dated May 1, 1991, on behalf of English-
American Import Export Co., you requested a tariff classification
ruling.        
      
     The sample blanket bag submitted with your letter is the
type used principally to display, package, and market blankets. 
It may also be used to store the blankets.  Your letter does not
state the type of plastic of which the bags are composed.  
     
     The applicable subheading for the bags, when composed of
polyethylene or other polymers of ethylene, will be 3923.21.0090,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides for articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of
plastics, sacks and bags, of polymers of ethylene, other.  The
rate of duty will be 3 percent ad valorem.

     The applicable subheading for the bags, when composed of
polymers other than ethylene, will be 3923.29.0000, HTS, which
provides for articles for the conveyance or packing of goods, of
plastics, sacks and bags, of other plastics.  The rate of duty
will be 3 percent ad valorem.   

     This ruling is being issued under the provisions of Section
177 of the Customs Regulations (19 C.F.R. 177).

     A copy of this ruling letter should be attached to the entry
documents filed at the time this merchandise is imported.  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. Maguire
