RE:  The tariff classification of a plastic cap from Germany.

Dear Mr. Mercer:

     In your letter dated September 6, 1991, on behalf of
Pfeiffer, Inc., you requested a tariff classification ruling.    
   
      
     The plastic cap is designed to fit over the top of a spray
pump jar or bottle.  The cap is designed in such a way so that it
will fit securely over the bottle or jar and snap into place.
     
     The applicable subheading for the plastic cap will be
3923.50.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides for stoppers, lids, caps and other
closures, of plastics.  The rate of duty will be 5.3 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
