Overview

HTS code 8523.49 encompasses a broad range of optical media designed for recording phenomena other than sound or images, or for which the primary recording function is not solely sound or image reproduction. This category is distinct from its sibling, 8523.41, which specifically covers unrecorded optical media. Items classified under 8523.49 have already been recorded with data or are designed for a specific, non-auditory, non-visual recording purpose.

Within this category, further distinctions are made based on the specific type of phenomena being recorded or reproduced. For instance, subcategory 8523.49.20 addresses media intended for the reproduction of phenomena *other than* sound or image, such as data storage for computers or specialized scientific recordings.

The remaining subcategories, 8523.49.30.00 and the "Other" designation, further refine the classification by specifying media dedicated solely to sound reproduction or encompassing other miscellaneous recorded optical media that do not fit the more specific subcategories. This hierarchical structure ensures precise classification based on the recorded content and intended use of the optical medium.
