8521.10.30.00 - Not capable of recording 🖩

This HTS category, 8521.10.30.00, specifically covers magnetic tape video recording or reproducing apparatus that are *not* capable of recording. This means the devices are designed solely for playing back pre-recorded content on magnetic tape, such as VCRs or older video cassette players that lack recording functionality. The key classification criterion here is the absence of any recording capability, distinguishing them from devices that can both record and play.

Within the broader classification of magnetic tape-type video recording or reproducing apparatus, this subcategory differentiates itself from its sibling, 8521.10.60.00 "Other." The "Other" category would encompass magnetic tape video playback devices that do not fit the specific criteria of being color, cartridge or cassette type, or potentially devices with different tape formats not explicitly covered elsewhere. Therefore, 8521.10.30.00 is for a very specific type of playback-only magnetic tape video device.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories. The classification ends at this level, indicating that all products meeting the description of non-recording, magnetic tape, color, cartridge or cassette type video recording or reproducing apparatus fall under this specific HTS code.
