RE:  The tariff classification of  a PVC carrying bag from Taiwan

Dear Ms. Hund:

     In your letter dated February 26, 1996 you requested a
modification of  tariff classification ruling 818329 February 14,
1996.  Your request is on behalf of Ivy Green Corporation. 

     You have indicated that there had been a mistake of fact in
that the carrying bag portion of NY 818329 incorrectly described
the article as being of textile materials.  You now indicate that
the item, which will be imported and sold separately from the
item it is designed to contain, will have an exterior surface of
Polyvinyl Chloride ( PVC ).  

     If the article actually imported is manufactured of a
material which has an outer surface of PVC, the applicable
subheading for the PVC carrying bag will be 4202.92.9040,
Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which
provides, in part, for other containers, other.   The rate of
duty will be 19.5 percent ad valorem.   

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

     A copy of the ruling or the control number indicated above
should be provided with the entry documents filed at the time
this merchandise is imported.  If you have any questions
regarding the ruling, contact National Import Specialist Kevin
Gorman at 212-466-5893.



                                        Sincerely,
