8462.90.80.10 - Used or rebuilt

This HTS subheading, 8462.90.80.10, specifically covers used or rebuilt machine tools classified under the broader category of "Other" presses for working metal or metal carbides, not otherwise specified. This designation applies to machinery that has been previously utilized and subsequently refurbished or reconditioned to a functional state, distinguishing it from new equipment. The "used or rebuilt" status is a primary criterion for this classification.

This classification is distinct from its siblings, 8462.90.80.20 and 8462.90.80.60, which are also designated as "Other" within their respective "Other" parent categories. While 8462.90.80.20 differentiates based on a specific value threshold (under $3,025 each), and 8462.90.80.60 represents a general "Other" category without further specific qualifiers, 8462.90.80.10's defining characteristic is its condition of being used or rebuilt. The intention is to capture pre-owned machinery that has undergone restoration.

As this subheading represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 8462.90.80.10 relies entirely on meeting the criteria of being a press for working metal or metal carbides, not otherwise specified, and being in a used or rebuilt condition. Importers should ensure that the machinery's operational status and the documentation supporting its reconditioned state are clearly documented for customs purposes.
