Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.16.50, pertains to specific types of microwave ovens designed for domestic use that incorporate integral range hoods. The defining characteristics of these appliances include a particular oven capacity, ranging from greater than 58 liters up to a maximum of 60 liters, and a glass turntable plate with a diameter exceeding 30 cm but not surpassing 32 cm. These ovens are further classified under subheading 8516.50.00 within the broader HTS structure.
This specific category is distinguished from other HTS entries by its precise technical specifications and intended use. While other categories might cover general kitchen appliances or separate microwave ovens and range hoods, 9902.16.50 focuses on the combined unit with defined capacity and turntable dimensions, specifically for household applications. Its placement within Chapter 99 indicates it is subject to temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, or additional import restrictions, differentiating it from standard tariff classifications.
As this node represents a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories that subdivide this classification. Therefore, classification decisions within this code rely solely on meeting all the described criteria for the microwave oven with an integral range hood, including its capacity and the dimensions of its glass turntable plate.
