Overview
HTS code 9010.60.00.00 specifically covers projection screens. These are typically foldable or fixed surfaces designed to receive and reflect projected images, commonly used in conjunction with projectors for visual presentations, entertainment, or educational purposes. The classification is based on the primary function of the item as a dedicated surface for image projection, distinguishing it from other equipment used in photographic or cinematographic processes.
This category is distinct from sibling HTS codes such as 9010.10.00.00, which pertains to automatic film and paper developing equipment, and 9010.50, which encompasses other laboratory apparatus like negatoscopes. Unlike these, 9010.60.00.00 focuses solely on the passive display surface itself, rather than the processing or viewing of photographic media. It also differs from 9010.90, which covers parts and accessories for the broader range of equipment within heading 9010.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories under 9010.60.00.00. Therefore, classification within this code is generally straightforward, relying on the item's intended use as a screen for projection. Specific materials or mounting mechanisms (e.g., manual pull-down, electric motorized, tripod-mounted) do not typically warrant separate classification, provided the core function remains that of a projection screen.
