Overview
This HTS category, 8532.25.00.55, encompasses fixed capacitors with a dielectric of paper or plastics that are not designed for surface mounting by contact. These capacitors are characterized by their construction and the method by which they are intended to be integrated into electrical circuits, excluding those specifically manufactured for SMD applications.
The distinction between this category and its sibling, 8532.25.00.45, lies primarily in the mounting method. While 8532.25.00.45 specifically covers capacitors designed for surface mounting using contact points, this category pertains to all other fixed paper or plastic dielectric capacitors that are not of the SMD contact type. This includes, but is not limited to, capacitors designed for through-hole mounting or other non-surface-contact integration methods.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification within this code hinges on identifying fixed capacitors with a paper or plastic dielectric that do not meet the criteria for surface mounting by contact as defined in the sibling category. Importers and exporters should carefully examine the physical characteristics and intended application of such capacitors to ensure correct classification.
