Overview
This HTS subheading covers electronic calculators that are designed to operate independently of an external power source, meaning they are typically battery-powered or possess internal rechargeable batteries. It also includes pocket-sized data recording, reproducing, and displaying machines that incorporate calculating functionalities. These devices are distinguished by their portability and their ability to perform calculations as a primary or significant function, alongside data management capabilities.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 8470.10.00.60, relies on the core functionality and power source. While both fall under the broader umbrella of calculating and data machines, 8470.10.00.40 specifically targets devices that are self-sufficient in terms of power, whereas the "Other" category would likely encompass devices requiring external power or those with a different primary function but a secondary calculating capability. The key differentiator is the intrinsic ability to operate without being tethered to a wall outlet.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification within this code is determined by meeting the criteria of being an electronic calculator or a pocket-sized data machine with calculating functions that operates without an external source of electric power. Examples would include advanced scientific calculators, personal digital assistants (PDAs) with built-in calculators and data storage, and sophisticated pocket organizers that prominently feature computational abilities and portability.
