Overview
This HTS subcategory, 8528.59.45.00, specifically covers color monitors that do not incorporate television reception apparatus and have a video display diagonal measuring no more than 34.29 cm (which is equivalent to 13.5 inches). These are typically compact display units used for computer output, point-of-sale systems, or other specialized applications where a smaller screen size is required. The key defining characteristic is the combination of color display capability and the maximum screen diagonal.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 8528.59.50.00, is crucial. The sibling category, "Other," would encompass color monitors that do not meet the specific diagonal measurement limitation of this subcategory, meaning they have a display diagonal exceeding 34.29 cm. Therefore, the primary differentiator is the physical size of the video display.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. The classification at this level is considered definitive for color monitors meeting the specified screen size. When classifying goods under this HTS code, it is essential to accurately measure the diagonal of the active display area, excluding any bezels or frames, and confirm that it does not exceed 34.29 cm, while also ensuring the monitor is not equipped with television reception capabilities.
