Overview
HTS code 8522.90.36.00 covers assemblies and subassemblies that are suitable for use solely or principally with audio recording or reproducing apparatus of heading 8519 or 8521. These assemblies are characterized by consisting of two or more individual pieces that have been fastened or joined together to form a functional unit. This classification specifically applies to such composite parts when they do not meet the criteria for more specific subheadings within 8522.90.
This category can be distinguished from its sibling, HTS code 8522.90.25.00, which specifically covers "Printed circuit assemblies." While printed circuit assemblies are often components within broader assemblies classified under 8522.90.36.00, this specific code encompasses a wider range of joined components beyond just populated printed boards, including mechanical structures, wiring harnesses, or combinations of electronic and mechanical parts that are integral to the operation of the apparatus of headings 8519 or 8521.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of goods under 8522.90.36.00 relies on a thorough examination of their composition, function, and intended use. Importers and exporters should ensure that the components are indeed designed for use with the specified audio recording or reproducing apparatus and that they are presented as a unified assembly or subassembly of two or more joined parts.
