Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8479.89Lower: 12.5% vs 25%

If for optical lens or glass coating

Coating equipment for non-display glass products classifies as other industrial machinery.

8486Same rate: 25%

If imported as replacement parts only

Spares and accessories for FPD machines fall under parts provisions rather than complete apparatus.

Import Tips & Compliance

Catalog target materials (ITO, Al, Mo) and substrate sizes proving FPD use; vacuum chamber photos helpful

Avoid bulk import declarations—declare as complete systems

Check anti-dumping on sputtering targets separately
