Murata TZC3 Series Trimmer Capacitor
A ceramic dielectric variable capacitor adjustable via screwdriver, rated 3-20pF, used in RF tuning circuits for radios and TVs. It falls under HTS 8532.30 as a pre-set adjustable capacitor, distinct from fixed types. Designed for precise manual or tool-based adjustment during assembly.
Import Duty Rates by Country of Origin
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If capacitance is non-adjustable after manufacture
Fixed capacitors without adjustment capability fall under 8532.10, changing from variable classification.
If imported as part of a complete electronic module or board
Assembled into larger apparatus, they may be classified under electrical apparatus heading 8536 instead of separate components.
If packaged as hybrid integrated circuits with adjustment features
If mounted on a ceramic substrate with ICs, moves to hybrid circuits under 8542.90.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify capacitance range and adjustment mechanism in specs to confirm variable classification under 8532.30
• Include detailed datasheets showing pre-set adjustability; avoid misclassification as fixed capacitors (8532.10)
• Check RoHS compliance and provide tolerance ratings to prevent customs holds on electronic components
