Alternative Classifications

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

9001.90.50.00Same rate: 35%

If unmounted or glass not optically worked

Unmounted or simply cut glass optical elements classify in 9001, not mounted parts for instruments.

9013.90.70.00Same rate: 35%

If dedicated solely to laser apparatus

Parts principally for specific Chapter 90 instruments like lasers may classify with the apparatus in 9013.

8486.90.00Lower: 25% vs 35%

If for industrial machine technical use

Chapter 90 excludes articles for machines/appliances of technical use in Section XVI like 8486.
