            RE:  The Classification of Doxepin Hydrochloride

            Dear Mr. Silvey:

                  This is in reference to the ruling issued to you
            (834697), dated January 10, 1989, from our New York office,
            concerning the classification under the Haronized Tariff
            Schedule of the United States (HTSUS) of certain chemicals from
            Italy.

                  One of the products listed, doxepin hydrochloride, was
            classified in subheading 2932.90.4100, HTSUS.  It has come to
            our attention that the Chemical Abstract Service (C.A.S.)
            registry number (1229-29-4) for this chemical is listed in the
            chemical appendix to the HTSUS.  Therefore, doxepin
            hydrochloride is properly classifiable in subheading
            2932.90.4500, HTSUS.  The rate of duty is 3.7 cents per kg plus
            16.2 percent ad valorem.

                                        Sincerely,




                                        John Durant, Director
                                        Commercial Rulings Division
