Overview
This HTS classification covers specific liquid crystal display (LCD) television panel assemblies designed for use in televisions. The key defining characteristic for this category is the diagonal measurement of the video display screen, which must fall within the range of over 124.46 cm but not exceeding 137.16 cm. These panel assemblies are the core component for creating the visual output of a television set.
As this entry resides within Chapter 99 of the HTS, which pertains to temporary legislation and modifications, its application is distinct from the permanent classification of goods found in earlier chapters. While primary classification for television panel assemblies would typically be found under headings such as 9013, this Chapter 99 code introduces a specific provision, likely a temporary tariff modification or restriction, that applies to these particular sized panels when imported under certain trade agreement or legislative circumstances.
Given that HTS 9902.17.25 is a leaf node, it does not have further subcategories. Classification is solely determined by the precise diagonal screen measurement within the specified range and adherence to any accompanying trade agreement or legislative conditions. Importers must ensure the physical dimensions of the LCD panel assembly precisely match the criteria to benefit from or comply with this temporary classification.
