Overview
HTS Code 8479.90.95.96, described as "Other," serves as a residual category for parts of machinery and mechanical appliances having individual functions, not specified or included elsewhere in Chapter 84, when these parts do not fall under more specific "other" subcategories. This classification is applicable to components that are not explicitly listed or delineated within preceding sibling categories.
This specific subcategory differentiates itself from its siblings by encompassing parts that do not relate to machinery for public works or building (8479.90.95.50), presses for manufacturing particle or fiber building board or wood treatment machinery (8479.90.95.60), or metal treating machinery (8479.90.95.65). Therefore, if a part is for a machinery covered by heading 8479, but its specific function or origin does not align with the aforementioned sibling categories, it will likely be classified here.
As a leaf node, 8479.90.95.96 does not have further subdivisions. Consequently, classification within this category relies on a thorough exclusion of all more specific classifications at lower levels of the tariff schedule. Importers and exporters must carefully examine the nature, design, and intended use of the part to ensure it is not classifiable under any other provision before resorting to this residual "Other" classification.
