Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "85" represent Electrical Machinery and Equipment.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following main categories:

• Vacuum tubes and semiconductor devices: Including diodes, transistors, integrated circuits, etc.
• Electrical components: Such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, transformers, etc.
• Electronic integrated circuits: Including microprocessors, memory, etc.
• Broadcasting and television receiving apparatus and related equipment: Including televisions, radios, video cameras, etc.
• Recording apparatus and related equipment: Including tape recorders, CD players, etc.
• Data processing equipment: Including computers, printers, scanners, etc.
• Automatic data processing equipment and parts thereof: Including servers, routers, etc.
• Cables and related equipment: Including optical fiber cables, coaxial cables, etc.
• Other electrical equipment: Including radar, navigation equipment, medical electronic equipment, etc.

In short, any product related to electronic technology, or parts used in the manufacture of electronic equipment, may be classified under Chapter 85 of the HS code.

If you can provide a more specific HS code (e.g., 8517), I can provide a more detailed classification explanation.

First four digits explanation: HS code: 8523

Classification description: Discs, tapes, solid non-volatile storage devices, "smart cards," and other media for recording sound or other phenomena, whether or not recorded, including master discs and master tapes for the production of discs.

Note: Does not include products under Chapter 37.

Six-digit explanation: HS code: 8523.29

Classification: Discs, tapes, solid non-volatile storage devices, "smart cards," and other media for recording sound or other phenomena, whether or not recorded, including master discs and master tapes for the production of discs, but excluding products under Chapter 37.

Specific meaning: Magnetic media --> Other --> Other --> Other.

Eight to ten-digit explanation: hscode: 8523298000 Classification: Magnetic media --> Other --> Other --> Other magnetic tape --> Width over 6.5 mm --> Other Explanation: This HS code belongs to the sub-classification under "magnetic media," specifically "other magnetic tape," and refers to magnetic tapes with a width exceeding 6.5 mm. It covers magnetic tapes used for recording sound or other phenomena, but excludes products under Chapter 37.

Examples of products: * Magnetic tape for audio recording * Magnetic tape for video recording * Magnetic tape for data storage * Magnetic tape used in industrial applications * Magnetic tape for archival storage * Magnetic tape for backup systems * Magnetic tape for multimedia applications
