Overview

This HTS category, 8523.29.90.00, encompasses "Other" magnetic media not specifically classified elsewhere within the magnetic media subheadings. It serves as a residual category for magnetic recording media that do not fall under the more specific enumerations. This includes a broad range of items designed for the storage of data, sound, or images through magnetic means, which are not magnetic tapes for reproducing phenomena other than sound or image (8523.29.20.00) or other specified types of magnetic tapes.

The key differentiator for this category is the absence of specific trade definitions or explicit inclusions found in its sibling. While 8523.29.20.00 focuses on magnetic tapes for non-audio/visual phenomena, this "Other" category captures any magnetic media for recording purposes that doesn't fit that description. This could include, but is not limited to, various forms of magnetic discs, cartridges, or other proprietary magnetic storage formats not otherwise detailed.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within 8523.29.90.00 relies on a process of elimination. If a magnetic recording medium does not meet the criteria for other magnetic tape or disc classifications within the 8523 heading, it will be classified here. The primary consideration remains that the product is magnetic media intended for the recording of sound, images, or other phenomena.
