Overview
HTS code 9011.10.80.00 encompasses "Other" stereoscopic microscopes that do not fall under the specific categories of their siblings. Stereoscopic microscopes, also known as dissecting microscopes, are designed to provide a three-dimensional image with depth perception, typically used for magnification of larger specimens rather than for high-resolution imaging of microscopic structures. This category would include stereoscopic microscopes that are not equipped with integrated photographic capabilities.
This classification distinguishes itself from HTS code 9011.10.40.00, which specifically covers stereoscopic microscopes provided with a means for photographing the image. Therefore, 9011.10.80.00 applies to those stereoscopic microscopes lacking such photographic apparatus, such as basic dissecting microscopes with only eyepieces and objective lenses for direct visual observation.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 9011.10.80.00. Classification at this level relies on the determination that a stereoscopic microscope is not equipped with any dedicated mechanism for capturing images, thereby differentiating it from photographic models within the broader category of stereoscopic microscopes.
