Samples, photographs and product descriptions were submitted for our review. The products under consideration are printed store display signs. These display signs come in various shapes and sizes and are printed with different graphic designs and text on thin PVC boards. You state that the signage is produced using either ultraviolet offset printing method or the silkscreen printing method. You assert that the signs are not consumer goods and are not sold at retail as merchandise. The display signage may feature the company’s logo, slogan, and announcements for holidays or special occasions, all intended to direct customers to the company’s products within the store. You propose classification of the store display advertising signs in subheading 4911.10.0080, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), as printed trade advertising material. We agree. The essential nature and use of the product is conferred by the printed advertisement. The applicable subheading for the printed store display advertising signs will be 4911.10.0080, HTSUS, which provides for Other printed matter, including printed pictures and photographs: Trade advertising material, commercial catalogs and the like: Other.

Thus, for example, in addition to the classification stated above, the merchandise covered by this ruling may also need to be reported with either the Chapter 99 provision under which an additional tariff applies or one of the Chapter 99 provisions covering exceptions to such tariffs.
