8527.19.50.25 - Other

This HTS category, 8527.19.50.25, encompasses radiobroadcast receivers that are capable of operating without an external power source and do not fall into the more specific subcategory for FM only or AM/FM only receivers. Essentially, these are standalone radio receivers powered by internal batteries or other self-contained energy sources, designed for general radio reception, but lacking the specific frequency limitations of the sibling entry.

This category is distinguished from its sibling, 8527.19.50.10, by its broader reception capabilities. While the sibling is strictly limited to FM or AM/FM reception, this "Other" category would include devices capable of receiving other radio broadcast bands, such as shortwave (SW) or longwave (LW), or combinations thereof that are not exclusively FM or AM/FM. The key distinguishing factor is the absence of the exclusive FM or AM/FM operational limitation.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification within this code rests on confirming that the apparatus is a radiobroadcast receiver, operates independently of an external power source, and does not fit the more narrowly defined sibling category. Examples would include portable shortwave radios or multi-band receivers with battery operation that are not limited to solely FM or AM/FM reception.
