Overview
This HTS category, 9006.40.90.00, encompasses instant print cameras that are not of the fixed-focus type and have a value exceeding $10 each. These cameras are designed to produce a photographic print immediately after exposure, distinguishing them from traditional film cameras that require development.

The primary differentiator within the "Instant print cameras" heading (9006.40) is the valuation.

This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff application and duty calculation, reflecting differences in manufacturing complexity, features, or market positioning.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 9006.40.90.00 is final for instant print cameras meeting the non-fixed focus and value criteria.
