9201.10.00.31 - Containing a case measuring 121.92 cm or more but less than 129.54 cm in height 🖩

This HTS classification, 9201.10.00.31, specifically identifies upright pianos whose cases measure 121.92 cm or more but less than 129.54 cm in height. This precise dimensional criterion is the sole determinant for items falling within this subcategory, ensuring accurate customs processing for a particular size range of upright pianos. These instruments, by definition, are stringed keyboard instruments where the strings and soundboard are arranged vertically behind the keyboard.

This category is distinguished from its sibling categories by its unique height specification. For instance, 9201.10.00.11 covers upright pianos with cases shorter than 111.76 cm, while 9201.10.00.21 applies to those measuring between 111.76 cm and 121.92 cm. Conversely, 9201.10.00.41 is designated for upright pianos with cases exceeding or equaling 129.54 cm. This granular breakdown within the "Upright pianos" category allows for precise tariff application based on the physical dimensions of the instrument's case.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification ends with the defined height parameters for upright pianos. When classifying an upright piano, customs officials will measure the height of its case and assign it to the specific subcategory that precisely matches its dimensions. This ensures that pianos of all sizes are correctly categorized for import and export purposes.
