8528.49.15.00 - With a video display diagonal not exceeding 34.29 cm

This HTS category, 8528.49.15.00, specifically classifies cathode-ray tube monitors that are color, non-high definition, and intended for direct viewing (non-projection). A key distinguishing characteristic is that these monitors incorporate video recording or reproducing apparatus. Furthermore, they must have a video display diagonal not exceeding 34.29 cm. This specific sub-classification is for monitors that meet all these technical and functional criteria.

The primary distinction for this category lies in the integration of video recording or reproducing capabilities. While its sibling category, 8528.49.20.00, covers "Other" non-high definition, direct-view color CRT monitors with a video display diagonal not exceeding 35.56 cm, this category is reserved for those specifically equipped with such functionality. Therefore, if a monitor has video recording or reproducing features, it would fall here, rather than in the more general "Other" category at this level, assuming all other criteria are met.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification is complete at this level, meaning that any product meeting all the preceding and current descriptive criteria will be classified under this specific code. Practical application requires careful verification of the presence of video recording or reproducing apparatus and adherence to the diagonal measurement limit.
