Gary Ave. Roselle, IL 60172 RE: The tariff classification of a Flat Pack Wood Burning Pizza Oven & Grill Dear Ms. Keegan: In your letter dated November 28, 2023, you requested a tariff classification ruling. Images and descriptive information were provided. The item under consideration is a “Flat Pack Wood Burning Pizza Oven & Grill.” This oven/grill is made of powder-coated steel and features an internal cooking chamber made from cordierite. It also includes a built-in thermometer. This product is packaged in a flat pack and does not require tools for assembly due the groove and tongue design. Legal Note 1 (a) to Chapter 71 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), provides in pertinent part, subject to note 1 (a) to section VI and except as provided by note 3 to the chapter, that all articles consisting wholly or partly of natural or cultures pearls or of precious or semiprecious stones (natural, synthetic, or reconstructed) are to be classified in this chapter – see Explanatory Notes to heading 7117, HTSUS. As cordierite is listed as a semiprecious stone in the annex to heading 7103, HTSUS, and there are no exclusions preventing classification from said chapter, we are of the opinion that the pizza oven box, with internal cooking chamber made from cordierite, falls within the scope of articles classifiable within heading 7116, HTSUS. The applicable subheading for the “Flat Pack Wood Burning Pizza Oven & Grill,” with an internal cooking chamber made from cordierite, will be 7116.20.4000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “Articles of natural or cultured pearls, precious or semi-precious stones (natural, synthetic or reconstructed): Of precious or semiprecious stones (natural, synthetic or reconstructed): Other: Of semiprecious stones (except rock crystal): Other.” The rate of duty will be 10.5% ad valorem. Duty rates are provided for your convenience and are subject to change. The text of the most recent HTSUS and the accompanying duty rates are provided at https://hts.usitc.gov/current.
