          RE: Classification of Unprocessed Bee Pollen

          Dear Ms. Willoughby:

                This is in reference to the New York Ruling Letter (NYRL
          834777) sent to you from our New York office on December 22,
          1988, concerning the classification, under the Harmonized Tariff
          Schedule (HTSUS), of unprocessed bee pollen from Spain or the
          Dominican Republic.

                In that decision bee pollen was classified under the
          provision for other vegetable products not elswhere specified or
          included in subheading 1404.90.000, HTSUS.  Upon review of the
          applicable provisions in the HTSUS, it has been concluded that
          the more specific provision for this product is the one for other
          vegetable products of a kind used primarily for human
          consumption, not elsewhere specified or included, in subheading
          1212.99.000,HTSUS.

                Accordingly, unprocessed bee pollen is classifiable in
          subheading 1212.99.000, HTSUS, and is free of duty.

                NYRL 834777 is modified accordingly.


                                        Sincerely,




                                        John Durant, Director
                                        Commercial Rulings Division
