Overview
This HTS classification, 8802.11.01.30, pertains to new helicopters with an unladen weight not exceeding 998 kilograms. It specifically captures helicopters that are not unmanned aerial vehicles and fall within the broader category of helicopters under heading 8802. The "new" designation indicates that these aircraft have not been previously operated or owned by a consumer.
This subcategory is distinct from its sibling, 8802.11.01.45, which covers new helicopters with an unladen weight that exceeds 998 kg but does not exceed 2,000 kg. The primary differentiating factor is the precise weight threshold, making 8802.11.01.30 applicable only to the lighter end of the new helicopter spectrum within this specific sub-heading.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification decisions at this level will therefore rely heavily on the accurate determination of the aircraft's unladen weight and its status as a new, non-unmanned helicopter.
