8529.90.49.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 8529.90.49.00, encompasses "Other" parts suitable for use with the apparatus of headings 8524 to 8528, specifically falling under the broader classification of "Combinations of parts specified in additional U.S. note 9 to this chapter." This designation implies a residual category for integrated assemblies of various components that do not fit into more specific subcategories within the "Parts suitable for use solely or principally with the apparatus of headings 8524 to 8528" section. These assemblies are intended for use in specific electronic equipment such as televisions, video recorders, and sound recorders.

To distinguish this category from its sibling, "Subassemblies, for color television receivers, containing two or more printed circuit boards or ceramic substrates with components assembled thereon, except tuners or convergence assemblies," it's crucial to note that 8529.90.49.00 is a more general residual. While the sibling category focuses on specific subassemblies for color televisions with multiple circuit boards, this category captures other combinations of parts that may not exclusively be for color televisions or may involve different types of components or integration levels, provided they meet the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 9. The key differentiator lies in the specificity of the components and the intended apparatus.

As a leaf node, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, classification within 8529.90.49.00 hinges on determining that an item is indeed a combination of parts intended for apparatus covered by headings 8524 to 8528, meets the general requirements of additional U.S. note 9, and does not qualify for any more specific classification at a higher or lower level within the HTS. Practical classification relies on a thorough examination of the assembly's components, their interrelationships, and their intended function within the final apparatus.
