RE:  The tariff classification of Titanium Dioxide Anatase Type
(KOTIOX KA-    100) from South Korea and China.

Dear Mr. Collins:

     In your letter dated July 18, 1991,  you requested a tariff
classification ruling.       
  
     The prospective import is an anatase type titanium dioxide
containing 98 percent or more of titanium dioxide.

     The applicable subheading for the titanium dioxide will be
3206.10.0010, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States
(HTS), which provides pigments and preparations based on titanium
dioxide: containing 80 percent or more by weight of Ti O2.  The
rate of duty will be 6 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
