Overview

This HTS category, 9006.53.02.20, encompasses "Other" photographic cameras that utilize 35mm roll film and are designed for single use. These are cameras that are typically purchased, used for a specific purpose or event, and then disposed of rather than being reused. The defining characteristic is their disposable nature, implying a lower manufacturing cost and simpler mechanism compared to reusable cameras.

This specific subcategory is distinguished from its sibling, 9006.53.02.10, by the absence of a built-in electronic stroboscopic flash. While both fall under the umbrella of 35mm roll film cameras for single use, the presence or absence of an integrated electronic flash unit is the key differentiating factor for classification purposes. Cameras classified under 9006.53.02.10 will explicitly feature such a flash for illumination.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification concludes at this point for single-use cameras with 35mm roll film that do not possess an integrated electronic stroboscopic flash. Examples would include basic, pre-loaded cameras intended for casual photography at events like weddings or vacations, where the entire unit, including the film, is sent for processing.
