8528.72.72.20 - Not exceeding 75 cm

This HTS classification, specifically 8528.72.72.20, covers color television reception apparatus with a flat panel screen, of the LCD-type, where the video display diagonal does not exceed 75 centimeters. This category is designed for smaller to medium-sized television sets, often referred to as "personal" or "compact" televisions, that primarily function to receive television broadcast signals. The key distinguishing factor is the physical dimension of the viewable screen, which is a critical determinant in this level of classification.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling entries by the specified diagonal screen measurement. HTS codes 8528.72.72.30, 8528.72.72.40, and 8528.72.72.60 encompass television reception apparatus with larger screen diagonals, exceeding 75 cm. Therefore, the exact measurement of the diagonal screen is the sole criterion for differentiating between these closely related subheadings within the broader category of color reception apparatus with flat panel screens.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories branching from it. Classification is finalized at this point based on the type of screen technology (LCD-type) and the specified screen diagonal size. When classifying, confirm that the apparatus is indeed a television reception apparatus and not solely a monitor intended for use with external signal sources, and that it incorporates an LCD panel for direct viewing.
