Arcade Token Audio Game Console from Japan
> An arcade token audio game console is a music rhythm game that plays soundtracks when activated by tokens. Because the apparatus is operated by tokens and its primary function is sound reproduction for gameplay, it falls under tariff item 8519.20.90 as a payment-operated sound reproducing apparatus other than a record-player.

Import Tips
• > Classify the console based on its principal function—if sound reproduction dominates, 8519.20.90 applies; if it is primarily a video game, consider heading 9504
• Prepare a detailed description of the token mechanism and audio output for the CBSA
• Check if the console contains software that may require a separate declaration under heading 8523
