Overview
This HTS category, 8802.30.01.30, specifically classifies new, multiple-engine airplanes that fall within a precise unladen weight range. The defining characteristic is an unladen weight exceeding 2,000 kilograms but not exceeding 4,536 kilograms. This classification applies to operational aircraft designed for flight, excluding unmanned aerial vehicles and other types of aircraft like helicopters.
It is crucial to distinguish this category from its sibling, 8802.30.01.40, which covers multiple-engine airplanes with an unladen weight exceeding 4,536 but not exceeding 15,000 kilograms. Therefore, the primary differentiator for classification under 8802.30.01.30 is the upper limit of 4,536 kg for the unladen weight. If an airplane's unladen weight surpasses this threshold, it would be classified under the sibling category.
As this classification represents a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. This means that any new, multiple-engine airplane meeting the specified weight criteria of exceeding 2,000 kg but not exceeding 4,536 kg will be directly classified here. Practical classification will therefore rely on accurate determination of the aircraft's unladen weight, alongside confirmation of its status as a new, multiple-engine airplane.
