8529.90 - Other:
Sub-classifications
Overview
HTS code 8529.90 encompasses "Other" parts and accessories for apparatus of headings 8524 to 8528, excluding those specifically classified under subheading 8529.10. This category is a residual classification for components that do not fit into more specific descriptions within heading 8529. It includes a wide range of parts essential for the functionality of items like televisions, radios, sound recorders, video recorders, and related electronic communication equipment.
Unlike subheading 8529.10, which is dedicated solely to antennas and their components, 8529.90 covers a broader array of internal and external parts. This might include, but is not limited to, chassis, casings, power supplies, speakers, circuit boards not otherwise specified, and connecting accessories that are not antennas. The key distinction lies in the primary function and design of the part, with 8529.10 being exclusively for signal reception and transmission hardware.
The subcategories within 8529.90 further refine the classification of these diverse parts. For instance, there are specific provisions for printed circuit assemblies (PCAs), transceiver assemblies for certain communication apparatus, and flat panel screen assemblies used in specific types of televisions. Other subcategories address various types of "other" parts and combinations of parts, allowing for precise classification based on the specific nature and intended use of the component within the larger apparatus.
