8525.89.30.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 8525.89.30.00, encompasses a broad range of television cameras that do not fall under the more specific classifications of gyrostabilized cameras (8525.89.10.00) or studio television cameras excluding shoulder-carried and other portable types (8525.89.20.00). It is intended for those television cameras whose design or intended use does not align with the defined characteristics of the preceding subheadings within the "Other" category for television cameras.

The distinction for this residual category lies in the exclusion of specific features or applications addressed by its siblings. For instance, while 8525.89.10.00 is dedicated to cameras with inherent gyroscopic stabilization for use in motion-sensitive environments, and 8525.89.20.00 targets professional studio broadcast cameras, this subheading is for all other television cameras. This can include, but is not limited to, portable non-studio cameras, industrial surveillance cameras, or cameras designed for specialized scientific or recreational purposes, provided they are not otherwise classified.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, proper classification under 8525.89.30.00 relies on a thorough understanding of the excluded categories. Importers and exporters should carefully assess the primary function, physical attributes, and intended operational environment of their television cameras to ensure they are correctly placed when none of the more specific sibling categories are applicable.
