8452.10.00.90 - Other

This HTS category, 8452.10.00.90, specifically classifies "Other" sewing machines of the household type not already accounted for by sibling categories. This means it encompasses all domestic sewing machines that do not fall under the specific value-based criterion of other subheadings within the 8452.10.00 grouping. It is designed to capture household sewing machines based on their inherent characteristics and intended use for domestic garment construction, repair, and hobbyist sewing, provided they do not meet the specific value threshold of other classifications.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8452.10.00.10, which exclusively covers household sewing machines valued at $20 or less each. Therefore, 8452.10.00.90 applies to all other household sewing machines, regardless of their value, that do not meet the specific monetary limit set for the sibling category. The primary distinction lies in the unit value of the sewing machine, with this "Other" category serving as a residual for all remaining household sewing machines.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within 8452.10.00.90. The classification is final at this level, and the tariff is applied based on the criteria outlined above. For practical classification purposes, importers and exporters should ensure that the sewing machine is indeed of the household type and does not meet the specific value limitation of the sibling category before assigning it to 8452.10.00.90.
