GENERAL RULES FOR THE INTERPRETATION
OF THE HARMONIZED SYSTEM


Classification of goods in the Nomenclature shall be governed by the following principles :


1. The titles of Sections, Chapters and sub-Chapters are provided for ease of reference only; for legal purposes, classification shall be determined according to the terms of the headings and any relative Section or Chapter Notes and, provided such headings or Notes do not otherwise require, according to the following provisions :


2. (a) Any reference in a heading to an article shall be taken to include a reference to that article incomplete or unfinished, provided that, as presented, the incomplete or unfinished article has the essential character of the complete or finished article. It shall also be taken to include a reference to that article complete or finished (or falling to be classified as complete or finished by virtue of this Rule), presented unassembled or disassembled.


(b) Any reference in a heading to a material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to mixtures or combinations of that material or substance with other materials or substances. Any reference to goods of a given material or substance shall be taken to include a reference to goods consisting wholly or partly of such material or substance. The classification of goods consisting of more than one material or substance shall be according to the principles of Rule 3.


3. When by application of Rule 2 (b) or for any other reason, goods are, prima facie, classifiable under two or more headings, classification shall be effected as follows :


(a) The heading which provides the most specific description shall be preferred to headings providing a more general description. However, when two or more headings each refer to part only of the materials or substances contained in mixed or composite goods or to part only of the items in a set put up for retail sale, those headings are to be regarded as equally specific in relation to those goods, even if one of them gives a more complete or precise description of the goods.


(b) Mixtures, composite goods consisting of different materials or made up of different components, and goods put up in sets for retail sale, which cannot be classified by reference to 3 (a), shall be classified as if they consisted of the material or component which gives them their essential character, insofar as this criterion is applicable.


(c) When goods cannot be classified by reference to 3 (a) or 3 (b), they shall be classified under the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.


4. Goods which cannot be classified in accordance with the above Rules shall be classified under the heading appropriate to the goods to which they are most akin.


5. In addition to the foregoing provisions, the following Rules shall apply in respect of the goods referred to therein :


(a) Camera cases, musical instrument cases, gun cases, drawing instrument cases, necklace cases and similar containers, specially shaped or fitted to contain a specific article or set of articles, suitable for long-term use and presented with the articles for which they are intended, shall be classified with such articles when of a kind normally sold therewith. This Rule does not, however, apply to containers which give the whole its essential character;


Subject to the provisions of Rule 5 (a) above, packing materials and packing containers presented with the goods therein shall be classified with the goods if they are of a kind normally used for packing such goods. However, this provision is not binding when such packing materials or packing containers are clearly suitable for repetitive use.

6. For legal purposes, the classification of goods in the subheadings of a heading shall be determined according to the terms of those subheadings and any related Subheading Notes and, mutatis mutandis, to the above Rules, on the understanding that only subheadings at the same level are comparable. For the purposes of this Rule the relative Section and Chapter Notes also apply, unless the context otherwise requires.

1.- Any reference in this Section to a particular genus or species of an animal, except where the context otherwise requires, includes a reference to the young of that genus or species.

Mineral fuels, mineral oils and products of their distillation;
bituminous substances; mineral waxes


Notes.


1.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Separate chemically defined organic compounds, other than pure methane and propane which are to be classified in heading 27.11;


(b) Medicaments of heading 30.03 or 30.04; or


(c) Mixed unsaturated hydrocarbons of heading 33.01, 33.02 or 38.05.


2.- References in heading 27.10 to "petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals" include not only petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals but also similar oils, as well as those consisting mainly of mixed unsaturated hydrocarbons, obtained by any process, provided that the weight of the non-aromatic constituents exceeds that of the aromatic constituents.


However, the references do not include liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than 60 % by volume distils at 300 C, after conversion to 1,013 millibars when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (Chapter 39).


*3.- For the purposes of heading 27.10 “waste oils” means waste containing mainly petroleum oils and oils obtained from bituminous minerals (as described in Note 2 to this Chapter), whether or not mixed with water. These include:


Such oils no longer fit for use as primary products (for example,used lubricating oils, used hydraulic oils, used hydraulic oils and used transformer oils);


Sludge oils from the storage tanks of petroleum oils, mainly containing such oils and high concentration of additives (for example, chemicals) used in the manufacture of the primary products; and


Such oils in the form of emulsions in water or in mixtures with water, such as those resulting from oils spills, storage tank washings, or from the use of cutting oils for machining operations.


Subheading Notes.


1.- For the purposes of subheading 2701.11, "anthracite" means coal having a volatile matter limit (on a dry, mineral-matter-free basis) not exceeding 14 %.


2.- For the purposes of subheading 2701.12, "bituminous coal" means coal having a volatile matter limit (on a dry, mineral-matter-free basis) exceeding 14 % and a calorific value limit (on a moist, mineral-matter-free basis) equal to or greater than 5,833 kcal/kg.

- mixtures of isotopes of one and the same element, enriched in one or several of the said isotopes, that is, elements of which the natural isotopic composition has been artificially modified.


7.- Heading 28.48 includes copper phosphide (phosphor copper) containing more than 15 % by weight of phosphorus.


8.- Chemical elements (for example, silicon and selenium) doped for use in electronics are to be classified in this Chapter, provided that they are in forms unworked as drawn, or in the form of cylinders or rods. When cut in the form of discs, wafers or similar forms, they fall in heading 38.18.

Organic chemicals


Notes.


1.- Except where the context otherwise requires, the headings of this Chapter apply only to :


(a) Separate chemically defined organic compounds, whether or not containing impurities;


(b) Mixtures of two or more isomers of the same organic compound (whether or not containing impurities), except mixtures of acyclic hydrocarbon isomers (other than stereoisomers), whether or not saturated (Chapter 27);


*(c) The products of headings 29.36 to 29.39 or the sugar ethers, sugar acetals and sugar esters, and their salts, of heading 29.40, or the products of heading 29.41, whether or not chemically defined;


(d) The products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above dissolved in water;


(e) The products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above dissolved in other solvents provided that the solution constitutes a normal and necessary method of putting up these products adopted solely for reasons of safety or for transport and that the solvent does not render the product particularly suitable for specific use rather than for general use;


(f) The products mentioned in (a), (b), (c), (d) or (e) above with an added stabiliser (including an anti-caking agent) necessary for their preservation or transport;


(g) The products mentioned in (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) above with an added anti-dusting agent or a colouring or odoriferous substance added to facilitate their identification or for safety reasons, provided that the additions do not render the product particularly suitable for specific use rather than for general use;


(h) The following products, diluted to standard strengths, for the production of azo dyes : diazonium salts, couplers used for these salts and diazotisable amines and their salts.


2.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Goods of heading 15.04 or crude glycerol of heading 15.20;


(b) Ethyl alcohol (heading 22.07 or 22.08);


(c) Methane or propane (heading 27.11);


(d) The compounds of carbon mentioned in Note 2 to Chapter 28;


(e) Urea (heading 31.02 or 31.05);


(f) Colouring matter of vegetable or animal origin (heading 32.03), synthetic organic colouring matter, synthetic organic products of a kind used as fluorescent brightening agents or as luminophores (heading 32.04) or dyes or other colouring matter put up in forms or packings for retail sale (heading 32.12);


SECTION VI


Chapter 29


(g) Enzymes (heading 35.07);


(h) Metaldehyde, hexamethylenetetramine or similar substances, put up in forms (for example, tablets, sticks or similar forms) for use as fuels, or liquid or liquefied-gas fuels in containers of a kind used for filling or refilling cigarette or similar lighters and of a capacity not exceeding 300 cm3 (heading 36.06);


(ij) Products put up as charges for fire-extinguishers or put up in fire-extinguishing grenades, of heading 38.13; ink removers put up in packings for retail sale, of heading 38.24; or


(k) Optical elements, for example, of ethylenediamine tartrate (heading 90.01).


3.- Goods which could be included in two or more of the headings of this Chapter are to be classified in that one of those headings which occurs last in numerical order.


4.- In headings 29.04 to 29.06, 29.08 to 29.11 and 29.13 to 29.20, any reference to halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives includes a reference to compound derivatives, such as sulphohalogenated, nitrohalogenated, nitrosulphonated or nitrosulphohalogenated derivatives.


Nitro or nitroso groups are not to be taken as "nitrogen-functions" for the purposes of heading 29.29.


For the purposes of headings 29.11, 29.12, 29.14, 29.18 and 29.22, "oxygen-function" is to be restricted to the functions (the characteristic organic oxygen-containing groups) referred to in headings 29.05 to 29.20.


5.- (a) The esters of acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII with organic compounds of these sub-Chapters are to be classified with that compound which is classified in the heading which occurs last in numerical order in these sub-Chapters.


(b) Esters of ethyl alcohol with acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII are to be classified in the same heading as the corresponding acid-function compounds.


(c) Subject to Note 1 to Section VI and Note 2 to Chapter 28 :


(1) Inorganic salts of organic compounds such as acid-, phenol- or enol-function compounds or organic bases, of sub-Chapters I to X or heading 29.42, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the organic compound; and


(2) Salts formed between organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to X or heading 29.42 are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the base or to the acid (including phenol- or enol-function compounds) from which they are formed, whichever occurs last in numerical order in the Chapter.


(d) Metal alcoholates are to be classified in the same heading as the corresponding alcohols except in the case of ethanol (heading 29.05).


(e) Halides of carboxylic acids are to be classified in the same heading as the corresponding acids.


SECTION VI


Chapter 29


6.- The compounds of headings 29.30 and 29.31 are organic compounds the molecules of which contain, in addition to atoms of hydrogen, oxygen or nitrogen, atoms of other non-metals or of metals (such as sulphur, arsenic, mercury or lead) directly linked to carbon atoms.


Heading 29.30 (organo-sulphur compounds) and heading 29.31 (other organo-inorganic compounds) do not include sulphonated or halogenated derivatives (including compound derivatives) which, apart from hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, only have directly linked to carbon the atoms of sulphur or of a halogen which give them their nature of sulphonated or halogenated derivatives (or compound derivatives).


7.- Headings 29.32, 29.33 and 29.34 do not include epoxides with a three-membered ring, ketone peroxides, cyclic polymers of aldehydes or of thioaldehydes, anhydrides of polybasic carboxylic acids, cyclic esters of polyhydric alcohols or phenols with polybasic acids, or imides of polybasic acids.
These provisions apply only when the ring-position hetero-atoms are those resulting solely from the cyclising function or functions here listed.


*8.- For the purposes of heading 29. 37 :


the term “hormones” includes hormone-releasing or hormone-stimulating factors, hormone inhibitors and hormone antagonists (anti-hormones);


the expression “used primarily as hormones” applies not only to hormones derivatives and structural analoques used primarily for their hormonal effect, but also to those derivatives and structural analoques used primarily as intermediates in the synthesis of products of this heading


Subheading Note.


1.- Within any one heading of this Chapter, derivatives of a chemical compound (or group of chemical compounds) are to be classified in the same subheading as that compound (or group of compounds) provided that they are not more specifically covered by any other subheading and that there is no residual subheading named "Other" in the series of subheadings concerned.

PLASTICS AND ARTICLES THEREOF;
RUBBER AND ARTICLES THEREOF


Notes.


1.- Goods put up in sets consisting of two or more separate constituents, some or all of which fall in this Section and are intended to be mixed together to obtain a product of Section VI or VII, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to that product, provided that the constituents are :


(a) having regard to the manner in which they are put up, clearly identifiable as being intended to be used together without first being repacked;


(b) presented together; and


(c) identifiable, whether by their nature or by the relative proportions in which they are present, as being complementary one to another.


2.- Except for the goods of heading 39.18 or 39.19, plastics, rubber, and articles thereof, printed with motifs, characters or pictorial representations, which are not merely incidental to the primary use of the goods, fall in Chapter 49.


____________________


Chapter 39


Plastics and articles thereof


Notes.


1.- Throughout the Nomenclature the expression "plastics" means those materials of headings 39.01 to 39.14 which are or have been capable, either at the moment of polymerisation or at some subsequent stage, of being formed under external influence (usually heat and pressure, if necessary with a solvent or plasticiser) by moulding, casting, extruding, rolling or other process into shapes which are retained on the removal of the external influence.


Throughout the Nomenclature any reference to "plastics" also includes vulcanised fibre. The expression, however, does not apply to materials regarded as textile materials of Section XI.


2.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Waxes of heading 27.12 or 34.04;


(b) Separate chemically defined organic compounds (Chapter 29);


(c) Heparin or its salts (heading 30.01);


(d) Solutions (other than collodions) consisting of any of the products specified in headings 39.01 to 39.13 in volatile organic solvents when the weight of the solvent exceeds 50 % of the weight of the solution (heading 32.08); stamping foils of heading 32.12;


SECTION VII


Chapter 39


(e) Organic surface-active agents or preparations of heading 34.02;


(f) Run gums or ester gums (heading 38.06);


(g) Diagnostic or laboratory reagents on a backing of plastics (heading 38.22);


(h) Synthetic rubber, as defined for the purposes of Chapter 40, or articles thereof;


(ij) Saddlery or harness (heading 42.01) or trunks, suitcases, handbags or other containers of heading 42.02;


(k) Plaits, wickerwork or other articles of Chapter 46;


(l) Wall coverings of heading 48.14;


(m) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile articles);


(n) Articles of Section XII (for example, footwear, headgear, umbrellas, sun umbrellas, walking-sticks, whips, riding- crops or parts thereof);


(o) Imitation jewellery of heading 71.17;


(p) Articles of Section XVI (machines and mechanical or electrical appliances);


(q) Parts of aircraft or vehicles of Section XVII;


(r) Articles of Chapter 90 (for example, optical elements, spectacle frames, drawing instruments);


(s) Articles of Chapter 91 (for example, clock or watch cases);


(t) Articles of Chapter 92 (for example, musical instruments or parts thereof);


(u) Articles of Chapter 94 (for example, furniture, lamps and lighting fittings, illuminated signs, prefabricated buildings);


(v) Articles of Chapter 95 (for example, toys, games, sports requisites); or


(w) Articles of Chapter 96 (for example, brushes, buttons, slide fasteners, combs, mouthpieces or stems for smoking pipes, cigarette-holders or the like, parts of vacuum flasks or the like, pens, propelling pencils).


3.- Headings 39.01 to 39.11 apply only to goods of a kind produced by chemical synthesis, falling in the following categories :


(a) Liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than 60 % by volume distils at 300 C, after conversion to 1,013 millibars when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (headings 39.01 and 39.02);


(b) Resins, not highly polymerised, of the coumarone-indene type (heading 39.11);


(c) Other synthetic polymers with an average of at least 5 monomer units;


Silicones (heading 39.10);


SECTION VII


Chapter 39


(e) Resols (heading 39.09) and other prepolymers.


4.- The expression "copolymers" covers all polymers in which no single monomer unit contributes 95 % or more by weight to the total polymer content.


For the purposes of this Chapter, except where the context otherwise requires, copolymers (including co-polycondensates, co-polyaddition products, block copolymers and graft copolymers) and polymer blends are to be classified in the heading covering polymers of that comonomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For the purposes of this Note, constituent comonomer units of polymers falling in the same heading shall be taken together.


If no single comonomer unit predominates, copolymers or polymer blends, as the case may be, are to be classified in the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.


5.- Chemically modified polymers, that is those in which only appendages to the main polymer chain have been changed by chemical reaction, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the unmodified polymer. This provision does not apply to graft copolymers.


6.- In headings 39.01 to 39.14, the expression "primary forms" applies only to the following forms :


(a) Liquids and pastes, including dispersions (emulsions and suspensions) and solutions;


(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, powders (including moulding powders), granules, flakes and similar bulk forms.


7.- Heading 39.15 does not apply to waste, parings and scrap of a single thermoplastic material, transformed into primary forms (headings 39.01 to 39.14).


8.- For the purposes of heading 39.17, the expression "tubes, pipes and hoses" means hollow products, whether semi-manufactures or finished products, of a kind generally used for conveying, conducting or distributing gases or liquids (for example, ribbed garden hose, perforated tubes). This expression also includes sausage casings and other lay-flat tubing. However, except for the last-mentioned, those having an internal cross-section other than round, oval, rectangular (in which the length does not exceed 1.5 times the width) or in the shape of a regular polygon are not to be regarded as tubes, pipes and hoses but as profile shapes.


9.- For the purposes of heading 39.18, the expression "wall or ceiling coverings of plastics" applies to products in rolls, of a width not less than 45 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration, consisting of plastics fixed permanently on a backing of any material other than paper, the layer of plastics (on the face side) being grained, embossed, coloured, design-printed or otherwise decorated.


10.- In headings 39.20 and 39.21, the expression "plates, sheets, film, foil and strip" applies only to plates, sheets, film, foil and strip (other than those of Chapter 54) and to blocks of regular geometric shape, whether or not printed or otherwise surface-worked, uncut or cut into rectangles (including squares) but not further worked (even if when so cut they become articles ready for use).


11.- Heading 39.25 applies only to the following articles, not being products covered by any of the earlier headings of sub-Chapter II :


Reservoirs, tanks (including septic tanks), vats and similar containers, of a capacity exceeding 300 l;


SECTION VII


Chapter 39


(b) Structural elements used, for example, in floors, walls or partitions, ceilings or roofs;


(c) Gutters and fittings therefor;

(d) Doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors;


(e) Balconies, balustrades, fencing, gates and similar barriers;


(f) Shutters, blinds (including Venetian blinds) and similar articles and and parts and fittings thereof;


(g) Large-scale shelving for assembly and permanent installation, for example, in shops, workshops, warehouses;


(h) Ornamental architectural features, for example, flutings, cupolas, dovecotes; and


(ij) Fittings and mountings intended for permanent installation in or on doors, windows, staircases, walls or other parts of buildings, for example, knobs, handles, hooks, brackets, towel rails, switch-plates and other protective plates.


Subheading Notes.


1.- Within any one heading of this Chapter, polymers (including copolymers) and chemically modified polymers are to be classified according to the following provisions :


(a) Where there is a subheading named "Other" in the same series :


(1) The designation in a subheading of a polymer by the prefix "poly" (e.g., polyethylene and polyamide-6,6) means that the constituent monomer unit or monomer units of the named polymer taken together must contribute 95 % or more by weight of the total polymer content.


(2) The copolymers named in subheadings 3901.30, 3903.20, 3903.30 and 3904.30 are to be classified in those subheadings, provided that the comonomer units of the named copolymers contribute 95 % or more by weight of the total polymer content.


(3) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified in the subheading named "Other", provided that the chemically modified polymers are not more specifically covered by another subheading.


(4) Polymers not meeting (1), (2) or (3) above, are to be classified in the subheading, among the remaining subheadings in the series, covering polymers of that monomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this purpose, constituent monomer units of polymers falling in the same subheading shall be taken together. Only the constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series of subheadings under consideration are to be compared.


(b) Where there is no subheading named "Other" in the same series :


(1) Polymers are to be classified in the subheading covering polymers of that monomer unit which predominates by weight over every other single comonomer unit. For this purpose, constituent monomer units of polymers falling in the same subheading shall be taken together. Only the constituent comonomer units of the polymers in the series under consideration are to be compared.


SECTION VII


Chapter 39


(2) Chemically modified polymers are to be classified in the subheading appropriate to the unmodified polymer.


Polymer blends are to be classified in the same subheading as polymers of the same monomer units in the same proportions.


*2.- For the purpose of subheading 3920.43, the term <<plasticisers>> includes secondary plasticiers.

Rubber and articles thereof


Notes.


1.- Except where the context otherwise requires, throughout the Nomenclature the expression "rubber" means the following products, whether or not vulcanised or hard : natural rubber, balata, gutta-percha, guayule, chicle and similar natural gums, synthetic rubber, factice derived from oils, and such substances reclaimed.


2.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile articles);


(b) Footwear or parts thereof of Chapter 64;


(c) Headgear or parts thereof (including bathing caps) of Chapter 65;


(d) Mechanical or electrical appliances or parts thereof of Section XVI (including electrical goods of all kinds), of hard rubber;


(e) Articles of Chapter 90, 92, 94 or 96; or


*(f) Articles of Chapter 95 (other than sports gloves mittens and mitts and articles of headings 40.11 to 40.13).


3.- In headings 40.01 to 40.03 and 40.05, the expression "primary forms" applies only to the following forms :


(a) Liquids and pastes (including latex, whether or not pre-vulcanised, and other dispersions and solutions);


(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, bales, powders, granules, crumbs and similar bulk forms.


4.- In Note 1 to this Chapter and in heading 40.02, the expression "synthetic rubber" applies to :


(a) Unsaturated synthetic substances which can be irreversibly transformed by vulcanisation with sulphur into non-thermoplastic substances which, at a temperature between 18 C and 29 C, will not break on being extended to three times their original length and will return, after being extended to twice their original length, within a period of five minutes, to a length not greater than one and a half times their original length. For the purposes of this test, substances necessary for the cross-linking, such as vulcanising activators or accelerators, may be added; the presence of substances as provided for by Note 5 (b) (ii) and (iii) is also permitted. However, the presence of any substances not necessary for the cross-linking, such as extenders, plasticisers and fillers, is not permitted;


(b) Thioplasts (TM); and


(c) Natural rubber modified by grafting or mixing with plastics, depolymerised natural rubber, mixtures of unsaturated synthetic substances with saturated synthetic high polymers provided that all the above-mentioned products comply with the requirements concerning vulcanisation, elongation and recovery in (a) above.


SECTION VII


Chapter 40


5.- (a) Headings 40.01 and 40.02 do not apply to any rubber or mixture of rubbers which has been compounded, before or after coagulation, with :


(i) vulcanising agents, accelerators, retarders or activators (other than those added for the preparation of pre-vulcanised rubber latex);


(ii) pigments or other colouring matter, other than those added solely for the purpose of identification;


(iii) plasticisers or extenders (except mineral oil in the case of oil-extended rubber), fillers, reinforcing agents, organic solvents or any other substances, except those permitted under (b);


(b) The presence of the following substances in any rubber or mixture of rubbers shall not affect its classification in heading 40.01 or 40.02, as the case may be, provided that such rubber or mixture of rubbers retains its essential character as a raw material :


(i) emulsifiers or anti-tack agents;


(ii) small amounts of breakdown products of emulsifiers;


(iii) very small amounts of the following : heat-sensitive agents (generally for obtaining thermosensitive rubber latexes), cationic surface-active agents (generally for obtaining electro-positive rubber latexes), antioxidants, coagulants, crumbling agents, freeze-resisting agents, peptisers, preservatives, stabilisers, viscosity-control agents, or similar special-purpose additives.


6.- For the purposes of heading 40.04, the expression "waste, parings and scrap" means rubber waste, parings and scrap from the manufacture or working of rubber and rubber goods definitely not usable as such because of cutting-up, wear or other reasons.


7.- Thread wholly of vulcanised rubber, of which any cross-sectional dimension exceeds 5 mm, is to be classified as strip, rods or profile shapes, of heading 40.08.


8.- Heading 40.10 includes conveyor or transmission belts or belting of textile fabric impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with rubber or made from textile yarn or cord impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber.


9.- In headings 40.01, 40.02, 40.03, 40.05 and 40.08, the expressions "plates", "sheets" and "strip" apply only to plates, sheets and strip and to blocks of regular geometric shape, uncut or simply cut to rectangular (including square) shape, whether or not having the character of articles and whether or not printed or otherwise surface-worked, but not otherwise cut to shape or further worked.


In heading 40.08 the expressions "rods" and "profile shapes" apply only to such products, whether or not cut to length or surface-worked but not otherwise worked.

(a) Elastomeric yarn


Filament yarn, including monofilament, of synthetic textile material, other than textured yarn, which does not break on being extended to three times its original length and which returns, after being extended to twice its original length, within a period of five minutes, to a length not greater than one and a half times its original length.


(b) Unbleached yarn


Yarn which :


(i) has the natural colour of its constituent fibres and has not been bleached, dyed (whether or not in the mass) or printed; or


(ii) is of indeterminate colour ("grey yarn"), manufactured from garnetted stock.


Such yarn may have been treated with a colourless dressing or fugitive dye (which disappears after simple washing with soap) and, in the case of man-made fibres, treated in the mass with delustring agents (for example, titanium dioxide).


(c) Bleached yarn


Yarn which :


(i) has undergone a bleaching process, is made of bleached fibres or, unless the context otherwise requires, has been dyed white (whether or not in the mass) or treated with a white dressing;

(iii) is obtained from slivers or rovings which have been printed; or


(iv) is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached or bleached yarn and coloured yarn.


The above definitions also apply, mutatis mutandis, to monofilament and to strip or the like of Chapter 54.


(e) Unbleached woven fabric


Woven fabric made from unbleached yarn and which has not been bleached, dyed or printed. Such fabric may have been treated with a colourless dressing or a fugitive dye.


(f) Bleached woven fabric

(ii) consists of coloured yarn of a single uniform colour.


(h) Woven fabric of yarns of different colours


Woven fabric (other than printed woven fabric) which :


(i) consists of yarns of different colours or yarns of different shades of the same colour (other than the natural colour of the constituent fibres);


(ii) consists of unbleached or bleached yarn and coloured yarn; or

SECTION XI


Chapter 50


(In all cases, the yarn used in selvedges and piece ends is not taken into consideration.)


(ij) Printed woven fabric


Woven fabric which has been printed in the piece, whether or not made from yarns of different colours.


(The following are also regarded as printed woven fabrics : woven fabrics bearing designs made, for example, with a brush or spray gun, by means of transfer paper, by flocking or by the batik process.)


The process of mercerisation does not affect the classification of yarns or fabrics within the above categories.


The definitions at (e) to (ij) above apply, mutatis mutandis, to knitted or chrocheted fabrics.


(k) Plain weave


A fabric construction in which each yarn of the weft passes alternately over and under successive yarns of the warp and each yarn of the warp passes alternately over and under successive yarns of the weft.


*2.- (A) Products of Chapters 56 to 63 containing two or more textile materials are to be regarded as consisting wholly of that textile material which would be selected under Note 2 to this Section for the classification of a product of Chapters 50 to 55 or of heading 58.09 consisting of the same textile materials.


(B) For the application of this rule :


(a) where appropriate, only the part which determines the classification under Interpretative Rule 3 shall be taken into account;


(b) in the case of textile products consisting of a ground fabric and a pile or looped surface no account shall be taken of the ground fabric;


in the case of embroidery of heading 58.10 and goods thereof, only the ground fabric shall be taken into account. However, embroidery without visible ground, and goods thereof, shall be classified with reference to the embroidering threads alone.

Man-made filaments


Notes.


1.- Throughout the Nomenclature, the term "man-made fibres" means staple fibres and filaments of organic polymers produced by manufacturing processes, either :


(a) By polymerisation of organic monomers, such as polyamides, polyesters, polyurethanes or polyvinyl derivatives; or


(b) By chemical transformation of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose, casein, proteins or algae), such as viscose rayon, cellulose acetate, cupro or alginates.


The terms "synthetic" and "artificial", used in relation to fibres, mean : synthetic : fibres as defined at (a); artificial : fibres as defined at (b).


The terms "man-made", "synthetic" and "artificial" shall have the same meanings when used in relation to "textile materials".


2.- Headings 54.02 and 54.03 do not apply to synthetic or artificial filament tow of Chapter 55.

Wadding, felt and nonwovens; special yarns;
twine, cordage, ropes and cables and articles thereof


Notes.


1.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Wadding, felt or nonwovens, impregnated, coated or covered with substances or preparations (for example, perfumes or cosmetics of Chapter 33, soaps or detergents of heading 34.01, polishes, creams or similar preparations of heading 34.05, fabric softeners of heading 38.09) where the textile material is present merely as a carrying medium;


(b) Textile products of heading 58.11;


(c) Natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (heading 68.05);


(d) Agglomerated or reconstituted mica, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (heading 68.14); or


(e) Metal foil on a backing of felt or nonwovens (Section XV).


2.- The term "felt" includes needleloom felt and fabrics consisting of a web of textile fibres the cohesion of which has been enhanced by a stitch-bonding process using fibres from the web itself.


3.- Headings 56.02 and 56.03 cover respectively felt and nonwovens, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber whatever the nature of these materials (compact or cellular).


Heading 56.03 also includes nonwovens in which plastics or rubber forms the bonding substance.


Headings 56.02 and 56.03 do not, however, cover :


(a) Felt impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber, containing 50 % or less by weight of textile material or felt completely embedded in plastics or rubber (Chapter 39 or 40);


(b) Nonwovens, either completely embedded in plastics or rubber, or entirely coated or covered on both sides with such materials, provided that such coating or covering can be seen with the naked eye with no account being taken of any resulting change of colour (Chapter 39 or 40); or


(c) Plates, sheets or strip of cellular plastics or cellular rubber combined with felt or nonwovens, where the textile material is present merely for reinforcing purposes (Chapter 39 or 40).


4.- Heading 56.04 does not cover textile yarn, or strip or the like of heading 54.04 or 54.05, in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour.

Articles of apparel and clothing accessories,
knitted or crocheted


Notes.


1.- This Chapter applies only to made up knitted or crocheted articles.


2.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Goods of heading 62.12;


(b) Worn clothing or other worn articles of heading 63.09; or


(c) Orthopaedic appliances, surgical belts, trusses or the like (heading 90.21).


3.- For the purposes of headings 61.03 and 61.04 :


(a) The term "suit" means a set of garments composed of two or three pieces made up, in respect of their outer surface, in identical fabric and comprising :


* - one suit coat or jacket the outer shell of which, exclusive of sleeves, consists of four or more panels, designed to cover the upper part of the body, possibly with a tailored waistcoat in addition whose front is made from the identical fabric as the outer surface of the other components of the set and whose back is made from the same fabric as the lining of the suit coat or jacket; and


- one garment designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, breeches or shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt, having neither braces nor bibs.


All of the components of a "suit" must be of the same fabric construction, colour and composition; they must also be of the same style and of corresponding or compatible size. However, these components may have piping (a strip of fabric sewn into the seam) in a different fabric.


If several separate components to cover the lower part of the body are presented together (for example, two pairs of trousers or trousers and shorts, or a skirt or divided skirt and trousers), the constituent lower part shall be one pair of trousers or, in the case of women's or girls' suits, the skirt or divided skirt, the other garments being considered separately.


The term "suit" includes the following sets of garments, whether or not they fulfil all the above conditions :


- morning dress, comprising a plain jacket (cutaway) with rounded tails hanging well down at the back and striped trousers;


- evening dress (tailcoat), generally made of black fabric, the jacket of which is relatively short at the front, does not close and has narrow skirts cut in at the hips and hanging down behind;


- dinner jacket suits, in which the jacket is similar in style to an ordinary jacket (though perhaps revealing more of the shirt front), but has shiny silk or imitation silk lapels.


SECTION XI


Chapter 61


(b) The term "ensemble" means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 61.07, 61.08 or 61.09), composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising :


- one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of pullovers which may form a second upper garment in the sole context of twin sets, and of waistcoats which may also form a second upper garment, and


- one or two different garments, designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt.


All of the components of an ensemble must be of the same fabric construction, style, colour and composition; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size. The term "ensemble" does not apply to track suits or ski suits, of heading 61.12.


4.- Headings 61.05 and 61.06 do not cover garments with pockets below the waist, with a ribbed waistband or other means of tightening at the bottom of the garment, or garments having an average of less than 10 stitches per linear centimetre in each direction counted on an area measuring at least 10 cm x 10 cm. Heading 61.05 does not cover sleeveless garments.


5.- Heading 61.09 does not cover garments with a drawstring, ribbed waistband or other means of tightening at the bottom of the garment.


6.- For the purposes of heading 61.11 :


(a) The expression "babies' garments and clothing accessories" means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86 cm; it also covers babies' napkins;


(b) Articles which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading 61.11 and in other headings of this Chapter are to be classified in heading 61.11.


7.- For the purposes of heading 61.12, "ski suits" means garments or sets of garments which, by their general appearance and texture, are identifiable as intended to be worn principally for skiing (cross-country or alpine). They consist either
of :


(a) a "ski overall", that is, a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper and the lower parts of the body; in addition to sleeves and a collar the ski overall may have pockets or footstraps; or


(b) a "ski ensemble", that is, a set of garments composed of two or three pieces, put up for retail sale and comprising :


- one garment such as an anorak, wind-cheater, wind-jacket or similar article, closed by a slide fastener (zipper), possibly with a waistcoat in addition, and


- one pair of trousers whether or not extending above waist-level, one pair of breeches or one bib and brace overall.


The "ski ensemble" may also consist of an overall similar to the one mentioned in paragraph (a) above and a type of padded, sleeveless jacket worn over the overall.


All the components of a "ski ensemble" must be made up in a fabric of the same texture, style and composition whether or not of the same colour; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size.

SECTION XI


Chapter 61


8.- Garments which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading 61.13 and in other headings of this Chapter, excluding heading 61.11, are to be classified in heading 61.13.


9.- Garments of this Chapter designed for left over right closure at the front shall be regarded as men's or boys' garments, and those designed for right over left closure at the front as women's or girls' garments. These provisions do not apply where the cut of the garment clearly indicates that it is designed for one or other of the sexes.


Garments which cannot be identified as either men's or boys' garments or as women's or girls' garments are to be classified in the headings covering women's or girls' garments.


10.- Articles of this Chapter may be made of metal thread.

Articles of apparel and clothing accessories, not knitted
or crocheted


Notes.


1.- This Chapter applies only to made up articles of any textile fabric other than wadding, excluding knitted or crocheted articles (other than those of heading 62.12).


2.- This Chapter does not cover :


(a) Worn clothing or other worn articles of heading 63.09; or


(b) Orthopaedic appliances, surgical belts, trusses or the like (heading 90.21).


3.- For the purposes of headings 62.03 and 62.04 :


(a) The term "suit" means a set of garments composed of two or three pieces made up, in respect of their outer surface, in identical fabric and comprising :


* - one suit coat or jacket the outer shell of which, exclusive of sleeves, consists of four or more panels, designed to cover the upper part of the body, possibly with a tailored waistcoat in addition whose front is made from the identical fabric as the outer surface of the other components of the set and whose back is made from the same fabric as the lining of the suit coat or jacket; and


- one garment designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, breeches or shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt, having neither braces nor bibs.


All of the components of a "suit" must be of the same fabric construction, colour and composition; they must also be of the same style and of corresponding or compatible size. However, these components may have piping (a strip of fabric sewn into the seam) in a different fabric.


If several separate components to cover the lower part of the body are presented together (for example, two pairs of trousers or trousers and shorts, or a skirt or divided skirt and trousers), the constituent lower part shall be one pair of trousers or, in the case of women's or girls' suits, the skirt or divided skirt, the other garments being considered separately.


The term "suit" includes the following sets of garments, whether or not they fulfil all the above conditions :


- morning dress, comprising a plain jacket (cutaway) with rounded tails hanging well down at the back and striped trousers;


- evening dress (tailcoat), generally made of black fabric, the jacket of which is relatively short at the front, does not close and has narrow skirts cut in at the hips and hanging down behind;


- dinner jacket suits, in which the jacket is similar in style to an ordinary jacket (though perhaps revealing more of the shirt front), but has shiny silk or imitation silk lapels.


SECTION XI


Chapter 62


(b) The term "ensemble" means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 62.07 or 62.08) composed of several pieces made up in identical fabric, put up for retail sale, and comprising :


- one garment designed to cover the upper part of the body, with the exception of waistcoats which may also form a second upper garment, and


- one or two different garments, designed to cover the lower part of the body and consisting of trousers, bib and brace overalls, breeches, shorts (other than swimwear), a skirt or a divided skirt.


All of the components of an ensemble must be of the same fabric construction, style, colour and composition; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size. The term "ensemble" does not apply to track suits or ski suits, of heading 62.11.


4.- For the purposes of heading 62.09 :


(a) The expression "babies' garments and clothing accessories" means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86 cm; it also covers babies' napkins;


(b) Articles which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading 62.09 and in other headings of this Chapter are to be classified in heading 62.09.


5.- Garments which are, prima facie, classifiable both in heading 62.10 and in other headings of this Chapter, excluding heading 62.09, are to be classified in heading 62.10.


6.- For the purposes of heading 62.11, "ski suits" means garments or sets of garments which, by their general appearance and texture, are identifiable as intended to be worn principally for skiing (cross-country or alpine). They consist either of :


(a) a "ski overall", that is, a one-piece garment designed to cover the upper and the lower parts of the body; in addition to sleeves and a collar the ski overall may have pockets or footstraps; or


(b) a "ski ensemble", that is, a set of garments composed of two or three pieces, put up for retail sale and comprising :


- one garment such as an anorak, wind-cheater, wind-jacket or similar article, closed by a slide fastener (zipper), possibly with a waistcoat in addition, and


- one pair of trousers whether or not extending above waist-level, one pair of breeches or one bib and brace overall.


The "ski ensemble" may also consist of an overall similar to the one mentioned in paragraph (a) above and a type of padded, sleeveless jacket worn over the overall.


All the components of a "ski ensemble" must be made up in a fabric of the same texture, style and composition whether or not of the same colour; they also must be of corresponding or compatible size.


7.- Scarves and articles of the scarf type, square or approximately square, of which no side exceeds 60 cm, are to be classified as handkerchiefs (heading 62.13). Handkerchiefs of which any side exceeds 60 cm are to be classified in heading 62.14.

SECTION XI


Chapter 62


8.- Garments of this Chapter designed for left over right closure at the front shall be regarded as men's or boys' garments, and those designed for right over left closure at the front as women's or girls' garments. These provisions do not apply where the cut of the garment clearly indicates that it is designed for one or other of the sexes.


Garments which cannot be identified as either men's or boys' garments or as women's or girls' garments are to be classified in the headings covering women's or girls' garments.


9.- Articles of this Chapter may be made of metal thread.

(h) Granules


Products of which less than 90 % by weight passes through a sieve with a mesh aperture of 1 mm and of which 90 % or more by weight passes through a sieve with a mesh aperture of 5 mm.

SECTION XV


Chapter 72


(i) Semi-finished products


Continuous cast products of solid section, whether or not subjected to primary hot-rolling; and


Other products of solid section, which have not been further worked than subjected to primary hot-rolling or roughly shaped by forging, including blanks for angles, shapes or sections.


These products are not presented in coils.


(j) Flat-rolled products


Rolled products of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section, which do not conform to the definition at (i) above in the form of :


- coils of successively superimposed layers, or


- straight lengths, which if of a thickness less than 4.75 mm are of a width measuring at least ten times the thickness or if of a thickness of 4.75 mm or more are of a width which exceeds 150 mm and measures at least twice the thickness.


Flat-rolled products include those with patterns in relief derived directly from rolling (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, buttons, lozenges) and those which have been perforated, corrugated or polished, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


Flat-rolled products of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any size, are to be classified as products of a width of 600 mm or more, provided that they do not assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


(k) Bars and rods, hot-rolled, in irregularly wound coils


Hot-rolled products in irregularly wound coils, which have a solid cross-section in the shape of circles, segments of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles or other convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). These products may have indentations, ribs, grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process (reinforcing bars and rods).


(l) Other bars and rods


Products which do not conform to any of the definitions at (ij), (k) or (l) above or to the definition of wire, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, segments of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), triangles or other convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). These products may :


- have indentations, ribs, grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process (reinforcing bars and rods);


- be twisted after rolling.


(m) Angles, shapes and sections


Products having a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length which do not conform to any of the definitions at (i), (j), (k) or (l) above or to the definition of wire.

SECTION XV


Chapter 72


Chapter 72 does not include products of heading 73.01 or 73.02.


(n) Wire


Cold-formed products in coils, of any uniform solid cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to the definition of flat-rolled products.


(o) Hollow drill bars and rods


Hollow bars and rods of any cross-section, suitable for drills, of which the greatest external dimension of the cross-section exceeds 15 mm but does not exceed 52 mm, and of which the greatest internal dimension does not exceed one half of the greatest external dimension. Hollow bars and rods of iron or steel not conforming to this definition are to be classified in heading 73.04.


2. Ferrous metals clad with another ferrous metal are to be classified as products of the ferrous metal predominating by weight.


3. Iron or steel products obtained by electrolytic deposition, by pressure casting or by sintering are to be classified, according to their form, their composition and their appearance, in the headings of this Chapter appropriate to similar hot-rolled products.


Subheading Notes.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Alloy pig iron


Pig iron containing, by weight, one or more of the following elements in the specified proportions :


- more than 0.2 % of chromium


- more than 0.3 % of copper


- more than 0.3 % of nickel


- more than 0.1 % of any of the following elements : aluminium, molybdenum, titanium, tungsten (wolfram), vanadium.


(b) Non-alloy free-cutting steel


Non-alloy steel containing, by weight, one or more of the following elements in the specified proportions :


- 0.08 % or more of sulphur


- 0.1 % or more of lead


- more than 0.05 % of selenium


- more than 0.01 % of tellurium


- more than 0.05 % of bismuth.


SECTION XV


Chapter 72


(c) Silicon-electrical steel


Alloy steels containing by weight at least 0.6 % but not more than 6 % of silicon and not more than 0.08 % of carbon. They may also contain by weight not more than 1 % of aluminium but no other element in a proportion that would give the steel the characteristics of another alloy steel.


(d) High speed steel


Alloy steels containing, with or without other elements, at least two of the three elements molybdenum, tungsten and vanadium with a combined content by weight of 7 % or more, 0.6 % or more of carbon and 3 to 6 % of chromium.


(e) Silico-manganese steel


Alloy steels containing by weight :


- not more than 0.7 % of carbon,


- 0.5 % or more but not more than 1.9 % of manganese, and


- 0.6 % or more but not more than 2.3 % of silicon, but no other element in a proportion that would give the steel the characteristics of another alloy steel.


2.- For the classification of ferro-alloys in the subheadings of heading 72.02 the following rule should be observed :


A ferro-alloy is considered as binary and classified under the relevant subheading (if it exists) if only one of the alloy elements exceeds the minimum percentage laid down in Chapter Note 1 (c); by analogy, it is considered respectively as ternary or quaternary if two or three alloy elements exceed the minimum percentage.


For the application of this rule the unspecified "other elements" referred to in Chapter Note 1 (c) must each exceed 10 % by weight.

Copper and articles thereof


Note.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Refined copper


Metal containing at least 99.85 % by weight of copper; or


Metal containing at least 97.5 % by weight of copper, provided that the content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit specified in the following table :


TABLE - Other elements

* Other elements are, for example, Al, Be, Co, Fe, Mn, Ni, Si.


(b) Copper alloys


Metallic substances other than unrefined copper in which copper predominates by weight over each of the other elements, provided that :


(i) the content by weight of at least one of the other elements is greater than the limit specified in the foregoing table; or


(ii) the total content by weight of such other elements exceeds 2.5 %.


(c) Master alloys


Alloys containing with other elements more than 10 % by weight of copper, not usefully malleable and commonly used as an additive in the manufac-ture of other alloys or as de-oxidants, de-sulphurising agents or

SECTION XV


Chapter 74


For similar uses in the metallurgy of non- ferrous metals. However, copper phosphide (phosphor copper)containing more than 15 % by weight of phosphorus falls in heading 28.48.


(d) Bars and rods


Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


Wire-bars and billets with their ends tapered or otherwise worked simply to facilitate their entry into machines for converting them into, for example, drawing stock (wire-rod) or tubes, are however to be taken to be unwrought copper of heading 74.03.


(e) Profiles


Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


(f) Wire


Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.


In the case of heading 74.14, however, the term "wire" applies only to products, whether or not in coils, of any cross-sectional shape, of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 6 mm.


(g) Plates, sheets, strip and foil


Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading 74.03), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section with or without rounded corners (including "modified rectangles" of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform thickness, which are :


- of rectangular (including square) shape with a thickness not exceeding one-tenth of the width,


- of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any size, provided that they do not assume the character of articles or products of other headings.

SECTION XV


Chapter 74



Headings 74.09 and 74.10 apply, inter alia, to plates, sheets, strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


(h) Tubes and pipes


Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness. Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners rounded along their whole length, are also to be taken to be tubes and pipes provided the inner and outer cross-sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the foregoing cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded, drilled, waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars or rings.


Subheading Note.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Copper-zinc base alloys (brasses)


Alloys of copper and zinc, with or without other elements. When other elements are present :


- zinc predominates by weight over each of such other elements;


- any nickel content by weight is less than 5 % (see copper-nickel-zinc alloys (nickel silvers)); and


- any tin content by weight is less than 3 % (see copper-tin alloys (bronzes)).


(b) Copper-tin base alloys (bronzes)


Alloys of copper and tin, with or without other elements. When other elements are present, tin predominates by weight over each of such other elements, except that when the tin content is 3 % or more the zinc content by weight may exceed that of tin but must be less than 10 %.


(c) Copper-nickel-zinc base alloys (nickel silvers)


Alloys of copper, nickel and zinc, with or without other elements. The nickel content is 5 % or more by weight (see copper-zinc alloys (brasses)).


(d) Copper-nickel base alloys


Alloys of copper and nickel, with or without other elements but in any case containing by weight not more than 1 % of zinc. When other elements are present, nickel predominates by weight over each of such other elements.

Note.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Bars and rods


Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


(b) Profiles


Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


(c) Wire


Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.


(d) Plates, sheets, strip and foil


Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading 75.02), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section with or without rounded corners (including "modified rectangles" of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform thickness, which are :


- of rectangular (including square) shape with a thickness not exceeding one-tenth of the width,


- of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any size, provided that they do not assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


SECTION XV


Chapter 75


Heading 75.06 applies, inter alia, to plates, sheets, strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


(e) Tubes and pipes


Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness. Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular, or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners rounded along their whole length, are also to be considered as tubes and pipes provided the inner and outer cross-sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the foregoing cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded, drilled, waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars or rings.


Subheading Notes.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Nickel, not alloyed


Metal containing by weight at least 99 % of nickel plus cobalt, provided that :


(i) the cobalt content by weight does not exceed 1.5 %, and


(ii) the content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit specified in the following table :

Aluminium and articles thereof


Note.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Bars and rods


Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


(b) Profiles


Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip, foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other headings.


(c) Wire


Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.


(d) Plates, sheets, strip and foil


Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading 76.01), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square) cross-section with or without rounded corners (including "modified rectangles" of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform thickness, which are :


- of rectangular (including square) shape with a thickness not exceeding one-tenth of the width,
- of a shape other than rectangular or square, of any size, provided that they do not assume the character                         of articles or products of other headings.


SECTION XV


Chapter 76


Headings 76.06 and 76.07 apply, inter alia, to plates, sheets, strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers, tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.


(e) Tubes and pipes


Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness. Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners rounded along their whole length, are also to be considered as tubes and pipes provided the inner and outer cross-sections are concentric and have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the foregoing cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded, drilled, waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars or rings.


Subheading Notes.


1.- In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them :


(a) Aluminium, not alloyed


Metal containing by weight at least 99 % of aluminium, provided that the content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit specified in the following table :


TABLE - Other elements

However, metal tank mercury arc rectifiers remain classified in heading No. 85.04.


3.- Heading No. 85.09 covers only the following electro-mechanical machines of the kind commonly used for domestic purposes :


*(a) Vacuum cleaners, including dry and wet vacuum cleaners’ floor polishers, food grinders and mixers, and fruit or vegetable juice extractors, of any weight;


(b) Other machines provided the weight of such machines does not exceed 20 kg.


* The heading does not, however, apply to fans or ventilating or recycling hoods incorporating a fan, whether or not fitted with filters (heading No. 84.14), centrifugal clothes-dryers (heading No. 84.21), dish washing machines (heading No. 84.22), household washing machines (heading No. 84.50), roller or other ironing machines (heading No. 84.20 or 84.51), sewing machines (heading No. 84.52), electric scissors (heading No.84.67) or to electro-thermic appliances (heading No. 85.16).


4.- For the purposes of heading No. 85.34 "printed circuits" are circuits obtained by forming on an insulating base, by any printing process (for example, embossing, plating-up, etching) or by the "film circuit" technique, conductor elements, contacts or other printed components (for example, inductances, resistors, capacitors) alone or interconnected according to a pre-established pattern, other than elements which can produce, rectify, modulate or amplify an electrical signal (for example, semiconductor elements).


The expression "printed circuits" does not cover circuits combined with elements other than those obtained during the printing process, nor does it cover individual, discrete resistors, capacitors or inductances. Printed circuits may, however, be fitted with non-printed connecting elements.


Thin- or thick-film circuits comprising passive and active elements obtained during the same technological process are to be classified in heading No. 85.42.


SECTION XVI


Chapter 85


5.- For the purposes of headings Nos. 85.41 and 85.42 :


(A) "Diodes, transistors and similar semiconductor devices" are semiconductor devices the operation of which depends on variations in resistivity on the application of an electric field;


(B) "Electronic integrated circuits and microassemblies" are :


(a) Monolithic integrated circuits in which the circuit elements (diodes, transistors, resistors, capacitors, interconnections, etc.) are created in the mass (essentially) and on the surface of a semiconductor material (doped silicon, for example) and are inseparably associated;


(b) Hybrid integrated circuits in which passive elements (resistors, capacitors, interconnections, etc.), obtained by thin- or thick-film technology, and active elements (diodes, transistors, monolithic integrated circuits, etc.), obtained by semiconductor technology, are combined to all intents and purposes indivisibly, on a single insulating substrate (glass, ceramic, etc.). These circuits may also include discrete components;


(c) Microassemblies of the moulded module, micromodule or similar types, consisting of discrete, active or both active and passive, components which are combined and interconnected.


For the classification of the articles defined in this Note, headings Nos. 85.41 and 85.42 shall take precedence over any other heading in the Nomenclature which might cover them by reference to, in particular, their function.


*6.- Records, tapes and other media of heading No. 85.23 or 85.24 remain classified in those headings, when presented with the apparatus for which they are intended.


This Note does not apply to such media when they are presented with articles other than the apparatus for which they are intended.


7.- For the purposes of heading No. 85.48, "spent primary cells, spent primary batteries and spent electric accumulators" are those which are neither usable as such because of breakage, cutting-up, wear or other reasons, nor capable of being recharged.


*Subheading Notes.


1.- Subheadings Nos. 8519.92 and 8527.12 cover only cassette-players with built-in amplifier, without built-in loudspeaker, capable of operating without an external source of electric power and the dimensions of which do not exceed 170 mm x 100 mm x 45 mm.


*2.- For the purposes of subheading 8542.10, the term ‘ smart cards’ means cards which have embedded in them an electronic integrated circuit ( microprocessor ) of any type in the form of a chip and which may or may not have a magnetic stripe.
