Overview

This HTS category, 8527.99.40.00, encompasses "Other" reception apparatus for radiobroadcasting that are not specifically classified elsewhere within heading 8527 and do not fall under the more specific subheadings. It serves as a residual category for devices that combine radio broadcasting reception with sound recording or reproducing apparatus, or a clock, within the same housing, but which do not meet the precise definitions of other listed categories.

This classification is distinct from its sibling categories. Specifically, it differs from 8527.99.10.00, which is reserved for infant nursery monitor systems that explicitly include a radio transmitter, an electrical adapter, and a radio receiver in the same package. It also differs from 8527.99.15.00, which designates other radio receivers that may not necessarily incorporate sound recording/reproducing capabilities or a clock, or are not part of a combined unit as described in this residual category.

As a leaf node, 8527.99.40.00 has no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of goods under this code relies heavily on their overall function and combination of features. Items would typically be classified here if they are primarily reception apparatus for radiobroadcasting, incorporate at least one of the additional features (sound recording/reproducing or a clock), are housed together, and do not fit the more specific descriptions provided by the preceding subheadings within heading 8527.
