Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1832 of 12 October 2021 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff

Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2021/1832 of 12 October 2021 amending Annex I to Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff

THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,

Having regard Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 of 23 July 1987 on the tariff and statistical nomenclature and on the Common Customs Tariff(1), and in particular Article 9(1) and Article 12 thereof,

Whereas:

  1. Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 established a goods nomenclature (‘Combined Nomenclature’ or ‘CN’) to meet, at one and the same time, the requirements of the Common Customs Tariff, the external trade statistics of the Union, and other Union policies concerning the importation or exportation of goods.

  2. In the interests of legislative simplification, it is appropriate to modernise the CN and to adapt its structure.

  3. It is necessary to update the CN in order to fulfil international commitments related to the changes in the Harmonised System (‘HS’) Nomenclature, pursuant to the Recommendation of 28 June 2019 of the Customs Cooperation Council.

  4. The HS 2022 amendments in Chapter 24 addressing novel tobacco products need to be transposed in the CN with specific headings and subheadings, to allow their identification and classification in accordance with Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 and the relevant case law of the Court of Justice of the European Union (e.g. C-547/13, Oliver Medical, point (45).

  5. Regarding the classification of novel tobacco products with regard to the nature of the emissions they produce, it may need to be reviewed, at a later stage, in the HS2027 review cycle if there is new evidence relevant for classification resulting, inter alia, from the work carried out by the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

  6. It is necessary to amend the CN in order to implement the gradual reduction of duty rates for products covered by the agreement in the form of the Declaration on the Expansion of Trade in Information Technology Products, as required by Council Decision (EU) 2016/971(2).

  7. It is necessary to amend the CN in order to take account of changes in requirements relating to statistics and to commercial policy and technological and commercial developments, by introducing new subheadings to facilitate monitoring of specific goods (‘not deterpenated rose oil’ of Chapter 33, ‘fibre board and plywood’ of Chapter 44, certain ‘steel tubes’ of Chapter 73, ‘aluminium composite panels’ of Chapter 76 of the CN).

  8. It is necessary to amend the classification of some substances in the list of non-proprietary names of pharmaceutical substances in Annex 3 of Part Three (Tariff Annexes) of Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 and in the list of pharmaceutical intermediates in Annex 6 of Part Three (Tariff Annexes) of Annex I to that Regulation.

  9. In the context of the effort of limiting global climate change, it is necessary to monitor the impact of the trade in fluorinated greenhouse gases on climate, and, therefore, to insert additional TARIC codes in Annex 10 of CN and to create a relevant new supplementary unit ‘t. CO2’.

  10. With effect from 1 January 2022, Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 should be replaced by a complete and up-to-date version of the CN, together with the autonomous and conventional rates of duty resulting from measures adopted by the Council or by the Commission.

  11. The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the Customs Code Committee,

HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

Article 1

Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 is replaced by the text set out in the Annex to this Regulation.

Article 2

This Regulation shall enter into force on the twentieth day following that of its publication in the Official Journal of the European Union.

It shall apply from 1 January 2022.

This Regulation shall be binding in its entirety and directly applicable in all Member States.

Done at Brussels, 12 October 2021.

For the Commission,

On behalf of the President,

Gerassimos Thomas

Director-General

Directorate-General for Taxation and Customs Union

ANNEX ICOMBINED NOMENCLATURE

PART ONE

PRELIMINARY PROVISIONS

SECTION I

GENERAL RULES

A. General rules for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature

Classification of goods in the Combined 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.

    1. 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.

    2. 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.

  2. 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:

    1. 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;

    2. 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, in so far as this criterion is applicable;

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

  3. 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.

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

    1. 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;

    2. subject to the provisions of rule 5(a), packing materials and packing containers(43) 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.

  5. 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 requires otherwise.

B. General rules concerning duties

  1. The customs duties applicable to imported goods originating in countries which are Contracting Parties to the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade or with which the European Union has concluded agreements containing the most-favoured-nation tariff clause shall be the conventional duties shown in column 3 of the schedule of duties. Unless the context requires otherwise, these conventional duties are applicable to goods, other than those referred to above, imported from any third country.

    The conventional rates of duty reproduced in column 3 are applicable from 1 January 2022.

    When autonomous rates of duty are lower than the conventional rates of duty, the autonomous duties, shown by means of a footnote, are applicable.

  2. Paragraph 1 shall not apply where special autonomous customs duties are provided for in respect of goods originating in certain countries or where preferential customs duties are applicable in pursuance of agreements.

  3. Paragraphs 1 and 2 shall not preclude the Member States from applying customs duties other than those of the Common Customs Tariff where the application of such other duties is justified by the law of the European Union.

  4. The duties expressed as percentage rates are ad valorem duties.

  5. The symbol ‘EA’ indicates that the goods concerned are chargeable with an ‘agricultural component’ fixed in accordance with Annex 1.

  6. The symbol ‘AD S/Z’ or ‘AD F/M’ in Chapters 17 to 19 indicates that the maximum rate of duty consists of an ad valorem duty plus an additional duty for certain forms of sugar or for flour. This additional duty is fixed in accordance with the provisions of Annex 1.

  7. In Chapter 22, the symbol ‘€ /% vol/hl’ means that a specific duty, expressed in euro, is to be calculated for each percentage volume of alcohol per hectolitre. Thus, a beverage having an alcohol content by volume of 40 % is to be charged as follows:

    • ‘€ 1/% vol/hl’ = € 1 × 40, giving a duty of € 40 per hectolitre, or

    • ‘€ 1/% vol/hl + € 5/hl’ = € 1 × 40 plus € 5, giving a duty of € 45 per hectolitre.

    Where, in addition, a minimum (MIN) value is shown, for example ‘€ 1,6/% vol/hl MIN € 9/hl’, it means that the duty, calculated on the basis of the above rule, is to be compared with the minimum duty, for example ‘€ 9/hl’, and the higher of the two is to be applied.

  8. Where, in Chapters 17 to 19 and 21 a maximum (MAX) value is shown, for example '(9 + EA) MAX (24,2 + AD S/Z)', it means that the duty calculated by the addition of 9 % and the 'agricultural component' (EA) may not exceed the sum of 24,2 % and the additional duty on sugar ('AD S/Z').

C. General rules applicable both to nomenclature and to duties

  1. Unless provided otherwise, the provisions relating to customs value shall be applied to determine, in addition to the value for the assessment of ad valorem customs duties, the values by reference to which the scope of certain headings or subheadings is defined.

  2. The dutiable weight, in the case of goods chargeable by weight, and the weights by reference to which the scope of certain headings or subheadings is defined, shall be taken to be:

    1. in the case of a reference to ‘gross weight’, the aggregate weight of the goods and of all the packing materials and packing containers;

    2. in the case of a reference to ‘net weight’ or simply to ‘weight’ without qualification, the weight of the goods themselves without packing materials and packing containers of any kind.

  3. The equivalent in national currencies of the euro, for Member States other than participating Member States as defined in Council Regulation (EC) No 974/98(43) (hereafter called ‘non-participating Member States’), shall be fixed in accordance with Article 53 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013(43) of the European Parliament and of the Council.

  4. Goods eligible for favourable tariff treatment by reason of their end-use:

    Where the import duty applicable under the end-use arrangements to goods for a specific end-use is not lower than that which would otherwise be applicable to the goods, the said goods shall be classified in the code referring to the end-use and Article 254 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 shall not apply.

SECTION II

C. Pharmaceutical products

  1. Relief from customs duty is provided for pharmaceutical products of the following categories:

    1. pharmaceutical substances which are covered by the CAS RN (chemical abstracts service registry numbers) and the international non-proprietary names (INNs) listed in Annex 3;

    2. salts, esters and hydrates of INNs which are described by combining INNs of Annex 3 with prefixes or suffixes of Annex 4, provided such products are classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheadings as the relevant INN;

    3. salts, esters and hydrates of INNs which are listed in Annex 5 and which are not classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheadings as the corresponding INNs;

    4. pharmaceutical intermediates, i.e. compounds of a kind used in the manufacture of finished pharmaceutical products which are covered by the CAS RN and the chemical names, listed in Annex 6.

  2. Special cases:

    1. INNs cover only those substances described in the lists of recommended and proposed INNs published by the World Health Organisation (WHO). Where the number of substances covered by an INN is less than that covered by the CAS RN, only those substances covered by the INN will be subject to duty-free treatment;

    2. where a product of Annex 3 or Annex 6 is identified by a CAS RN corresponding to a specific isomer, only that isomer may qualify for duty-free treatment;

    3. double derivatives (salts, esters and hydrates) of INNs identified by a combination of an INN of Annex 3 with a prefix or suffix of Annex 4 qualify for duty-free treatment, provided they are classifiable in the same 6-digit HS-subheading as the relevant INN:

      example: alanine methyl ester, hydrochloride;

    4. where an INN of Annex 3 is a salt (or an ester), no other salt (or ester) of the acid corresponding to the INN may qualify for duty-free treatment:

      example: oxprenoate potassium (INN): duty-free

      oxprenoate sodium: not duty-free.

    5. where no CAS RN is indicated for a product of Annex 3 or Annex 6 (number 0-00-0), the international non-proprietary name (INN) or listed chemical name is sufficient for duty-free treatment.

D. Standard rate of duty

  1. Customs duty shall be charged at the flat rate of 2,5 % ad valorem on goods:

    • contained in consignments sent by one private individual to another, or

    • contained in travellers' personal luggage,

    provided that such importations are not of a commercial nature.

    This flat-rate 2,5 % customs duty shall apply, provided that the intrinsic value of the goods subject to import duty does not exceed € 700 per consignment or per traveller.

    Such flat-rate assessment shall not apply to goods for which the rate of duty in the schedule of customs duties is ‘free’ and to goods of Chapter 24 which are contained in a consignment or in travellers' personal luggage in amounts exceeding those laid down in Article 27 or pursuant to Article 41 of Council Regulation (EC) No 1186/2009 of 16 November 2009 setting up a Community system of reliefs from customs duty(43).

  2. Importations shall be treated as not being of a commercial nature if:

    1. in the case of goods contained in consignments sent by one private individual to another, such consignments:

      • are of an occasional nature,

      • contain goods exclusively for the personal use of the consignee or his family, which do not by their nature or quantity reflect any commercial interest,

      • are sent to the consignee by the consignor free of payment of any kind;

    2. in the case of goods contained in travellers' personal luggage, they:

      • are of an occasional nature, and

      • consist exclusively of goods for the personal use of the travellers or their families, or of goods intended as presents; the nature and quantity of such goods must not be such as might indicate that they are being imported for commercial reasons.

  3. The flat rate of customs duty shall not apply to goods imported under the conditions set out in paragraphs 1 and 2 if the person entitled has, before the said flat rate is applied to them, requested that they be subject to the customs duties appropriate to them. All the goods making up the consignment shall then be subject to the import duties which are appropriate to them, without prejudice to the duty-free admission provided for pursuant to Articles 25 to 27 and 41 of Regulation (EC) No 1186/2009.

    For the purposes of the first subparagraph, import duties shall mean both customs duties and charges having equivalent effect and other import charges provided for under the common agricultural policy or under specific arrangements applicable to certain goods resulting from the processing of agricultural products.

  4. Non-participating Member States may round off the amount in national currencies resulting from the conversion of the sum of € 700.

  5. Non-participating Member States may maintain unchanged the equivalent in national currency of the sum of € 700 if, at the time of the annual adjustment provided for in Article 53 of Regulation (EU) No 952/2013 the conversion of this amount, before the rounding off provided for in paragraph 4, results in a change of less than 5 % in the equivalent in national currency, or in a reduction thereof.

E. Containers and packing materials

The following provisions are applicable to the containers and packing materials referred to in general interpretative rule 5(a) and (b) and put into free circulation at the same time as the goods which they contain or with which they are presented.

  1. When the containers and packing materials are classified with the goods in accordance with the provisions of general interpretative rule 5, they shall be:

    1. chargeable at the same rate of customs duty as the goods:

      • where such goods are subject to an ad valorem customs duty, or

      • where they are to be included in the dutiable weight of the goods;

    2. admitted free of customs duties:

      • where the goods are free of customs duty, or

      • where the goods are dutiable otherwise than by reference to weight or value, or

      • where the weight of the containers and packing materials is not to be included in the dutiable weight of the goods.

  2. Where containers and packing materials covered by the provisions of paragraph 1(a) and (b) contain or are presented with goods of several different tariff descriptions, the weight and value of the containers and packing materials shall, for the purpose of determining their dutiable weight or value, be apportioned among all the goods contained, in proportion to the weight or value of those goods.

F. Favourable tariff treatment by reason of the nature of the goods

  1. Under certain conditions, favourable tariff treatment by reason of the nature of the goods is provided for:

    • goods unfit for consumption,

    • seeds,

    • bolting cloth, not made up,

    • certain types of fresh table grapes, tobacco and nitrate.

    These goods are covered by subheadings(43) with a footnote reference in the following terms: ‘Entry under this subheading is subject to the conditions laid down in section II, paragraph F, of the preliminary provisions.’ or ‘This favourable tariff treatment is subject to compliance with the formalities and conditions laid down in section II, paragraph F, of the preliminary provisions’.

  2. Goods unfit for consumption for which favourable tariff treatment is granted by reason of their nature are listed in Annex 8 by reference to the heading under which they are classified together with the description and the quantities of the denaturants used. Such goods are presumed to be unfit for consumption when the goods to be denatured and the denaturants are homogeneously mixed and their separation is economically not viable.

  3. The goods listed below shall be classified in the appropriate headings for seed or for sowing, provided that the goods comply with the relevant provisions of the European Union:

    • for sweetcorn, spelt, hybrid maize, rice and sorghum (Council Directive 66/402/EEC(43)),

    • for seed potatoes (Council Directive 2002/56/EC of 13 June 2002(43)),

    • for oil seeds and oleaginous fruits (Council Directive 2002/57/EC of 13 June 2002(43)).

    When hybrid sweetcorn, spelt, hybrid maize, rice, hybrid sorghum or oil seeds and oleaginous fruits are of a kind to which the agricultural provisions do not apply, favourable tariff treatment by reason of their nature shall be granted, provided that it is established that the goods are actually intended for sowing.

  4. Bolting cloth, not made up, is granted favourable tariff treatment on the condition that the goods are indelibly marked in a way identifying them as being intended for bolting or similar industrial purposes.

  5. Fresh table grapes, tobacco and nitrate are granted favourable tariff treatment on production of a duly endorsed certificate. The particular provisions to be applied and the model of the certificates are set out at Annex 9.

Additional notes

1.

  1. The following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

    1. ‘carcases of bovine animals’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 10 and 0202 10: whole carcases of the slaughtered animals after having been bled, eviscerated and skinned, imported with or without the heads, with or without the feet and with or without the other offals attached. Where carcases are imported without the heads, the latter must have been separated from the carcase at the atloido-occipital joint. When imported without the feet, the latter must have been cut off at the carpo-metacarpal or tarso-metatarsal joints; ‘carcase’ includes the front part of the carcase comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, having more than 10 pairs of ribs;

    2. ‘half-carcases of bovine animals’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 10 and 0202 10: the product resulting from the symmetrical division of the whole carcase through the centre of each cervical, dorsal, lumbar and sacral vertebra and through the centre of the sternum and of the ischio-pubic symphysis; ‘half-carcase’ includes the front part of the half-carcase comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, having more than 10 ribs;

    3. ‘compensated quarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 20 and 0202 20 10: portions composed of either:

      • forequarters comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, and cut at the tenth rib; and hindquarters comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, and cut at the third rib, or

      • forequarters comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, and cut at the fifth rib, with the whole of the flank and breast attached; and hindquarters comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, and cut at the eighth cut rib.

      The forequarters and the hindquarters constituting ‘compensated quarters’ must be presented to customs at the same time and in equal numbers, and the total weight of the forequarters must be the same as that of the hindquarters; however, a difference between the weights of the two parts of the consignment is allowed, provided that this does not exceed 5 % of the weight of the heavier part (forequarters or hindquarters);

    4. ‘unseparated forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 30 and 0202 20 30: the front part of a carcase, comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, with a minimum of four pairs of ribs and a maximum of 10 pairs of ribs (the first four pairs of ribs must be whole, the others may be cut), with or without the thin flank;

    5. ‘separated forequarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 30 and 0202 20 30: the front part of a half-carcase, comprising all the bones and the scrag, neck and shoulder, with a minimum of four ribs and a maximum of 10 ribs (the first four ribs must be whole, the others may be cut), with or without the thin flank;

    6. ‘unseparated hindquarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 50 and 0202 20 50: the rear part of a carcase comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, including the fillet, with a minimum of three pairs of whole or cut ribs, with or without the shank and with or without the thin flank;

    7. ‘separated hindquarters’, for the purposes of subheadings 0201 20 50 and 0202 20 50: the rear part of a half-carcase, comprising all the bones and the thigh and sirloin, including the fillet, with a minimum of three whole or cut ribs, with or without the shank and with or without the thin flank;

      1. ‘crop’ and ‘chuck and blade’ cuts, for the purposes of subheading 0202 30 50: the dorsal part of the forequarter, including the upper part of the shoulder, obtained from a forequarter with a minimum of four ribs and a maximum of 10 ribs by a cut along a straight line through the point where the first rib joins the first sternal segment to the point of reflection of the diaphragm on the tenth rib;

      2. ‘brisket’ cut, for the purposes of subheading 0202 30 50: the lower part of the forequarter, comprising the brisket navel end and the brisket point end.

  2. Products covered by additional notes 1(A)(a) to (g) to this chapter may be presented with or without the vertebral column.

  3. In determining the number of whole or cut ribs referred to in additional note 1(A), only those attached to the vertebral column are to be taken into consideration. If the vertebral column has been removed, only the whole or cut ribs which otherwise would have been directly attached to the vertebral column are to be taken into consideration.

2.

  1. The following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

    1. ‘carcases or half-carcases’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 11 10 and 0203 21 10: slaughtered pigs, in the form of carcases of domestic swine which have been bled and eviscerated and from which the bristles and hooves have been removed. Half-carcases are derived from whole carcases by division through each cervical, dorsal, lumbar and sacral vertebra, through or along the sternum and through the ischio-pubic symphysis. These carcases or half-carcases may be with or without head, with or without the chaps, feet, flare fat, kidneys, tail or diaphragm. Half-carcases may be with or without spinal cord, brain or tongue. Carcases and half-carcases of sows may be with or without udders (mammary glands);

    2. ‘hams’ (legs), for the purposes of subheadings 0203 12 11, 0203 22 11, 0210 11 11 and 0210 11 31: the posterior (caudal) part of the half-carcase, including bones, with or without the foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat.

      The ham (leg) is separated from the rest of the half-carcase, so that it includes, at most, the last lumbar vertebra;

    3. ‘fore-ends’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 11, 0203 29 11, 0210 19 30 and 0210 19 60: the anterior (cranial) part of the half-carcase without the head, with or without the chaps, including bones, with or without foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat.

      The fore-end is separated from the rest of the half-carcase, so that it includes, at most, the fifth dorsal vertebra.

      The upper (dorsal) part of the fore-end, whether or not containing the blade-bone and attached muscles (neck-end in fresh or collar in salted condition), is considered a cut of the loin, when it is separated from the lower (ventral) part of the fore-end, at most by a cut just below the vertebral column;

    4. ‘shoulders’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 12 19, 0203 22 19, 0210 11 19 and 0210 11 39: the lower part of the fore-end whether or not containing the blade-bone and attached muscles, including bones, with or without foot, shank, rind or subcutaneous fat.

      The blade-bone and attached muscles, presented separately, remain classified in this subheading as a part of the shoulder;

    5. ‘loins’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 13, 0203 29 13, 0210 19 40 and 0210 19 70: the upper part of the half-carcase, extending from the first cervical vertebra to the caudal vertebrae, including bones, with or without the tenderloin, blade-bone, subcutaneous fat or rind.

      The loin is separated from the lower part of the half-carcase by a cut just below the vertebral column;

    6. ‘bellies’, for the purposes of subheadings 0203 19 15, 0203 29 15, 0210 12 11 and 0210 12 19: the lower part of the half-carcase situated between the ham (leg) and the shoulder, commonly known as ‘streaky’, with or without bones, but with the rind and the subcutaneous fat;

    7. ‘bacon sides’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 10: the pig half-carcase without the head, cheek, chap, feet, tail, flare fat, kidney, tenderloin, blade-bone, sternum, vertebral column, pelvic bone and diaphragm;

    8. ‘spencers’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 10: the bacon side without the ham, whether or not boned;

    9. ‘three-quarter sides’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 20: the bacon side without the fore-end, whether or not boned;

    10. ‘middles’, for the purposes of subheading 0210 19 20: the bacon side without the ham and the fore-end, whether or not boned.

      The subheading also includes cuts of middles containing tissue of loin and belly in natural proportion to the entire middles.

  2. The parts of the cuts defined in paragraph 2(A)(f) fall in the same subheadings, only if they contain rind and subcutaneous fat.

    If the cuts falling in subheadings 0210 11 11, 0210 11 19, 0210 11 31, 0210 11 39, 0210 19 30 and 0210 19 60 are derived from a bacon side from which the bones indicated under paragraph 2(A)(g) have already been removed, the lines of cutting must follow those defined under paragraph 2(A)(b), (c) and (d) accordingly; in any case, these cuts or parts thereof must contain bones.

  3. Subheadings 0206 49 00 and 0210 99 49, include, in particular, heads or halves of heads of domestic swine, with or without the brains, cheeks or tongues, and parts thereof.

    The head is separated from the rest of the half-carcase as follows:

    • by a straight cut parallel to the cranium; or

    • by a cut parallel to the cranium up to the level of the eyes and then inclined to the front of the head, thereby causing the chaps to remain attached to the half-carcase.

    The cheeks, snouts and ears as well as the meat attached to the head, particularly to the rear part, are considered parts of heads. However, the cuts of boneless meat of the fore-end, presented alone (jowls, chaps, or chaps and jowls together), fall in subheading 0203 19 55, 0203 29 55, 0210 19 50 or 0210 19 81, as the case may be.

  4. For the purposes of subheadings 0209 10 11 and 0209 10 19, ‘subcutaneous pig fat’ has the meaning of the fatty tissue which accumulates under the rind of the pig and adheres to it, irrespective of the part of the pig from which it comes; in any case, the weight of the fatty tissue must exceed the weight of the rind.

    These subheadings also include subcutaneous pig fat from which the rind has been removed.

  5. For the purposes of subheadings 0210 11 31, 0210 11 39, 0210 12 19 and 0210 19 60 to 0210 19 89, products in which the water/protein ratio in the meat (nitrogen content × 6,25) is 2,8 or less is considered as ‘dried or smoked’. The nitrogen content is determined in accordance with ISO method 937-1978.

CHAPTER 3

FISH AND CRUSTACEANS, MOLLUSCS AND OTHER AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. mammals of heading 0106;

  2. meat of mammals of heading 0106 (heading 0208 or 0210);

  3. fish (including livers, roes and milt thereof) or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, dead and unfit or unsuitable for human consumption by reason of either their species or their condition (Chapter 5); flours, meals or pellets of fish or of crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, unfit for human consumption (heading 2301); or

  4. caviar or caviar substitutes prepared from fish eggs (heading 1604).

2. In this chapter, the term ‘pellets’ means products which have been agglomerated either directly by compression or by the addition of a small quantity of binder.

3. Headings 0305 to 0308 do not cover flours, meals and pellets, fit for human consumption (heading 0309).

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 0305 32 11 and 0305 32 19, cod fillets (Gadus morhua, Gadus ogac, Gadus macrocephalus) having a total salt content by weight of 12 % or more which are fit for human consumption without further industrial processing, are considered to be salted fish.

However, frozen cod fillets which have a total salt content by weight of less than 12 % are to be classified under subheadings 0304 71 10 and 0304 71 90, in so far as the actual and lasting preservation depends essentially upon freezing.

2. For the purposes of the subheadings referred to in the third paragraph, the term ‘fillets’ includes ‘loins’, i.e. the strips of meat constituting the upper or lower, right or left, side of a fish insofar as the head, guts, fins (dorsal, anal, caudal, ventral, pectoral) and bones (spinal column or main backbone, ventral or costal bones, branchial bone or stapes, etc.) have been removed.

The classification of such products as fillets is unaffected by cutting them into pieces, provided that these pieces can be identified as having been obtained from fillets.

The provisions of the first two paragraphs apply to the following fish:

  1. tuna, of the genus Thunnus, of subheadings 0304 49 90 and 0304 87 00;

  2. swordfish (Xiphias gladius) of subheadings 0304 45 00 and 0304 84 00;

  3. marlin, sailfish and spearfish, of the family Istiophoridae, of subheadings 0304 49 90 and 0304 89 90;

  4. oceanic sharks (Hexanchus griseus, Cetorhinus maximus, Rhincodon typus, or of the families Alopiidae, Carcharhinidae, Sphyrnidae and Isuridae) of subheadings 0304 47 90 and 0304 88 19.

CHAPTER 4

DAIRY PRODUCE; BIRDS' EGGS; NATURAL HONEY; EDIBLE PRODUCTS OF ANIMAL ORIGIN, NOT ELSEWHERE SPECIFIED OR INCLUDED

Notes

1. The expression ‘milk’ means full-cream milk or partially or completely skimmed milk.

2. For the purposes of heading 0403, yogurt may be concentrated or flavoured and may contain added sugar or other sweetening matter, fruit, nuts, cocoa, chocolate, spices, coffee or coffee extracts, plants, parts of plants, cereals or bakers’ wares, provided that any added substance is not used for the purpose of replacing, in whole or in part, any milk constituent, and the product retains the essential character of yogurt.

3. For the purposes of heading 0405:

  1. the term ‘butter’ means natural butter, whey butter or recombined butter (fresh, salted or rancid, including canned butter) derived exclusively from milk, with a milkfat content of 80 % or more but not more than 95 % by weight, a maximum milk solids-not-fat content of 2 % by weight and a maximum water content of 16 % by weight. Butter does not contain added emulsifiers, but may contain sodium chloride, food colours, neutralising salts and cultures of harmless lactic-acid-producing bacteria;

  2. the expression ‘dairy spreads’ means a spreadable emulsion of the water-in-oil type, containing milkfat as the only fat in the product, with a milkfat content of 39 % or more but less than 80 % by weight.

4. Products obtained by the concentration of whey and with the addition of milk or milkfat are to be classified as cheese in heading 0406 provided that they have the three following characteristics:

  1. a milkfat content, by weight of the dry matter, of 5 % or more;

  2. a dry matter content, by weight, of at least 70 % but not exceeding 85 %; and

  3. they are moulded or capable of being moulded.

5. This chapter does not cover:

(a) non-living insects, unfit for human consumption (heading 0511);

  1. products obtained from whey, containing by weight more than 95 % lactose, expressed as anhydrous lactose calculated on the dry matter (heading 1702);

  2. products obtained from milk by replacing one or more of its natural constituents (for example, butyric fats) by another substance (for example, oleic fats) (heading 1901 or 2106); or

  3. albumins (including concentrates of two or more whey proteins, containing by weight more than 80 % whey proteins, calculated on the dry matter) (heading 3502) or globulins (heading 3504).

6. For the purposes of heading 0410, the term ‘insects’ means edible non-living insects, whole or in parts, fresh, chilled, frozen, dried, smoked, salted or in brine, as well as flours and meals of insects, fit for human consumption. However, it does not cover edible non-living insects otherwise prepared or preserved (generally Section IV).

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheading 0404 10, the expression ‘modified whey’ means products consisting of whey constituents, that is, whey from which all or part of the lactose, proteins or minerals have been removed, whey to which natural whey constituents have been added, and products obtained by mixing natural whey constituents.

2. For the purposes of subheading 0405 10, the term ‘butter’ does not include dehydrated butter or ghee (subheading 0405 90).

Additional notes

1. The duty rate applicable to mixtures falling in headings 0401 to 0406 shall be as follows:

  1. in mixtures where one of the components represents at least 90 % by weight, the rate applicable to that component applies;

  2. in other mixtures, the rate applicable shall be that of the component which results in the highest amount of import duty.

2. For the purposes of subheadings 0408 11 and 0408 19, the following applies:

the expression ‘otherwise preserved’ applies also to egg yolks with limited amounts of salt (in general, an amount of up to around 12 % by weight) or minor amounts of chemicals added for preservation purposes, provided that both of the following conditions are fulfilled:

  1. the products retain the character of egg yolks of subheadings 0408 11 and 0408 19;

  2. salt or chemicals are not used at a level higher than is necessary for the purposes of preservation.

3. Dairy produce of Chapter 4 includes dairy permeates, which are milk products characterised by a high content of lactose and obtained by removing milk fats and milk proteins from milk, whey, cream and/or sweet buttermilk, and/or from similar raw material by ultrafiltration or other processing techniques.

4. For the purposes of subheadings 0404 10 and 0404 90 the following applies :

Milk permeate and whey permeate can be analytically distinguished by the presence of substances (e.g. lactic acid, lactates and glycomacropeptides) which are associated with whey production.

Subheading 0404 10 includes ‘whey permeate’ which is a product with generally a slightly sour smell, obtained from whey or mixtures of natural whey constituents by ultrafiltration or other processing techniques.

The presence of substances associated with whey production (e.g. lactic acid, lactates and glycomacropeptides) is a condition for the classification of whey permeates into that subheading.

Subheading 0404 90 includes ‘milk permeate’ which is a product with generally a milky smell obtained from milk by ultrafiltration or other processing techniques. The quantitatively limited level or absence of lactic acid and lactates (lower than 0,100 % by weight, in milk permeates in powder form, or lower than 0,015 % by weight in milk permeates in liquid form) as well as the absence of glycomacropeptides, are the conditions for the classification of milk permeates into subheading 0404 90.

The method to be used for the detection of lactates shall be the ISO 8069:2005 method and the method to detect rennet whey (i.e. the presence of caseinomacropeptides such as glycomacropeptides) shall be the method set out in Appendix II to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2018/150(43).

CHAPTER 8

EDIBLE FRUIT AND NUTS; PEEL OF CITRUS FRUIT OR MELONS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover inedible nuts or fruits.

2. Chilled fruits and nuts are to be classified in the same headings as the corresponding fresh fruits and nuts.

3. Dried fruit or dried nuts of this chapter may be partially rehydrated, or treated for the following purposes:

  1. for additional preservation or stabilisation (for example, by moderate heat treatment, sulphuring, the addition of sorbic acid or potassium sorbate),

  2. to improve or maintain their appearance (for example, by the addition of vegetable oil or small quantities of glucose syrup),

provided that they retain the character of dried fruit or dried nuts.

4. Heading 0812 applies to fruit and nuts which have been treated solely to ensure their provisional preservation during transport or storage prior to use (for example, by sulphur dioxide gas, in brine, in sulphur water or in other preservative solutions), provided they remain unsuitable for immediate consumption in that state.

Additional notes

1. The content of various sugars expressed as sucrose (sugar content) of the products classified in this chapter corresponds to the figure indicated by a refractometer (used in accordance with the method prescribed in the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014(43)) at a temperature of 20 °C and multiplied by the factor 0,95.

2. For the purposes of subheadings 0811 90 11, 0811 90 31 and 0811 90 85, ‘tropical fruit’ means guavas, mangoes, mangosteens, papaws (papayas), tamarinds, cashew apples, lychees, jackfruit, sapodilla plums, passion fruit, carambola and pitahaya.

3. For the purposes of subheadings 0811 90 11, 0811 90 31, 0811 90 85, 0812 90 70 and 0813 50 31, ‘tropical nuts’ means coconuts, cashew nuts, Brazil nuts, areca (or betel), cola and macadamia nuts.

CHAPTER 10

CEREALS

Notes

1.

  1. The products specified in the headings of this chapter are to be classified in those headings only if grains are present, whether or not in the ear or on the stalk.

  2. The Chapter does not cover grains which have been hulled or otherwise worked. However, rice, husked, milled, polished, glazed, parboiled or broken remains classified in heading 1006. Similarly, quinoa from which the pericarp has been wholly or partly removed in order to separate the saponin, but which has not undergone any other processes, remains classified in heading 1008.

2. Heading 1005 does not cover sweetcorn (Chapter 7).

Subheading note

1. The term ‘durum wheat’ means wheat of the species Triticum durum and the hybrids derived from the inter-specific crossing of Triticum durum which have the same number (28) of chromosomes as that species.

Additional notes

1. The following terms have the meanings hereunder assigned to them:

  1. ‘round grain rice’ (subheadings 1006 10 30, 1006 20 11, 1006 20 92, 1006 30 21, 1006 30 42, 1006 30 61 and 1006 30 92): rice, the grains of which are of a length not exceeding 5,2 mm and of a length/width ratio of less than 2;

  2. ‘medium grain rice’ (subheadings 1006 10 50, 1006 20 13, 1006 20 94, 1006 30 23, 1006 30 44, 1006 30 63 and 1006 30 94): rice, the grains of which are of a length exceeding 5,2 mm but not exceeding 6,0 mm and of a length/width ratio of less than 3;

  3. ‘long grain rice’ (subheadings 1006 10 71, 1006 10 79, 1006 20 15, 1006 20 17, 1006 20 96, 1006 20 98, 1006 30 25, 1006 30 27, 1006 30 46, 1006 30 48, 1006 30 65, 1006 30 67, 1006 30 96 and 1006 30 98): rice, the grains of which are of a length exceeding 6,0 mm;

  4. ‘paddy rice’ (subheadings 1006 10 30, 1006 10 50, 1006 10 71 and 1006 10 79): rice which has retained its husk after threshing;

  5. ‘husked rice’ (subheadings 1006 20 11, 1006 20 13, 1006 20 15, 1006 20 17, 1006 20 92, 1006 20 94, 1006 20 96 and 1006 20 98): rice from which only the husk has been removed. Examples of rice falling within this definition are those with the commercial descriptions ‘brown rice’, ‘cargo rice’, ‘loonzain’ and ‘riso sbramato’;

  6. ‘semi-milled rice’ (subheadings 1006 30 21, 1006 30 23, 1006 30 25, 1006 30 27, 1006 30 42, 1006 30 44, 1006 30 46 and 1006 30 48): rice from which the husk, part of the germ and the whole or part of the outer layers of the pericarp, but not the inner layers, have been removed;

  7. ‘wholly milled rice’ (subheadings 1006 30 61, 1006 30 63, 1006 30 65, 1006 30 67, 1006 30 92, 1006 30 94, 1006 30 96 and 1006 30 98): rice from which the husk, the whole of the outer and inner layers of the pericarp, the whole of the germ in the case of long or medium grain rice, and at least part thereof in the case of round grain rice, have been removed, but in which longitudinal white striations may remain on not more than 10 % of the grains;

  8. ‘broken rice’ (subheading 1006 40): grain fragments, the length of which does not exceed three-quarters of the average length of the whole grain.

2. The duty-rate applicable to mixtures of this chapter is as follows:

  1. in mixtures where one of the components represents at least 90 % by weight, the rate applicable to that component applies;

  2. in other mixtures, the rate applicable is that of the component which results in the highest amount of import duty.

OIL SEEDS AND OLEAGINOUS FRUITS; MISCELLANEOUS GRAINS, SEEDS AND FRUIT; INDUSTRIAL OR MEDICINAL PLANTS; STRAW AND FODDER

Notes

1. Heading 1207 applies, inter alia, to palm nuts and kernels, cotton seeds, castor oil seeds, sesamum seeds, mustard seeds, safflower seeds, poppy seeds and shea nuts (karite nuts). It does not apply to products of heading 0801 or 0802 or to olives (Chapter 7 or 20).

2. Heading 1208 applies not only to non-defatted flours and meals but also to flours and meals which have been partially defatted or defatted and wholly or partially refatted with their original oils. It does not, however, apply to residues of headings 2304 to 2306.

3. For the purposes of heading 1209, beet seeds, grass and other herbage seeds, seeds of ornamental flowers, vegetable seeds, seeds of forest trees, seeds of fruit trees, seeds of vetches (other than those of the species Vicia faba) or of lupines are to be regarded as ‘seeds of a kind used for sowing’.

Heading 1209 does not, however, apply to the following, even if for sowing:

  1. leguminous vegetables or sweetcorn (Chapter 7);

CHAPTER 15

ANIMAL, VEGETABLE OR MICROBIAL FATS AND OILS AND THEIR CLEAVAGE PRODUCTS; PREPARED EDIBLE FATS; ANIMAL OR VEGETABLE WAXES

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. pig fat or poultry fat of heading 0209;

  2. cocoa butter, fat and oil (heading 1804);

  3. edible preparations containing by weight more than 15 % of the products of heading 0405 (generally, Chapter 21);

  4. greaves (heading 2301) or residues of headings 2304 to 2306;

  5. fatty acids, prepared waxes, medicaments, paints, varnishes, soap, perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations, sulphonated oils or other goods of Section VI; or

  6. factice derived from oils (heading 4002).

2. Heading 1509 does not apply to oils obtained from olives by solvent extraction (heading 1510).

3. Heading 1518 does not cover fats or oils or their fractions, merely denatured, which are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the corresponding undenatured fats and oils and their fractions.

4. Soap-stocks, oil foots and dregs, stearin pitch, glycerol pitch and wool grease residues fall in heading 1522.

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheading 1509 30, virgin olive oil has a free acidity expressed as oleic acid not exceeding 2,0 g/ 100 g and can be distinguished from the other virgin olive oil categories according to the characteristics indicated in the Codex Alimentarius Standard 33-1981.

2. For the purposes of subheadings 1514 11 and 1514 19, the expression ‘low-erucic-acid rape or colza oil’ means the fixed oil which has an erucic acid content of less than 2 % by weight.

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 1507 10, 1508 10, 1510 10 00, 1511 10, 1512 11, 1512 21, 1513 11, 1513 21, 1514 11, 1514 91, 1515 11, 1515 21, 1515 50 11, 1515 50 19, 1515 90 21, 1515 90 29, 1515 90 40 to 1515 90 59 and 1518 00 31:

  1. fixed vegetable oils, fluid or solid, obtained by pressure, are to be considered as ‘crude’ if they have undergone no other processing than:

    • decantation within the normal time limits,

    • centrifugation or filtration, provided that, in order to separate the oils from their solid constituents, only mechanical force, such as gravity, pressure or centrifugal force, has been employed (excluding any adsorption filtering process or any other physical or chemical process);

  2. fixed vegetable oils, fluid or solid, obtained by extraction are to continue to be considered as ‘crude’ when they cannot be distinguished, by their colour, odour or taste, nor by recognised special analytical properties, from vegetable oils and fats obtained by pressure;

  3. the expression ‘crude oils’ is to be taken to extend to degummed soya-bean oil and to cotton-seed oil from which the gossypol has been removed.

2.

  1. Headings 1509 and 1510 cover only oils derived solely from the treatment of olives and having the characteristics, with regard to the content of fatty acids and sterols, which are referred to in Annex I to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91(43). Their presence can be determined using methods set out in Annexes X and XIX to that Regulation.

    Headings 1509 and 1510 do not cover chemically altered olive oil (in particular re-esterified olive oil) and mixtures of olive oil with other oils. The presence of re-esterified olive oil is ascertained using the method set out in Annex VII to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

  2. Subheadings 1509 20 00, 1509 30 00 and 1509 40 00 cover only the olive oils defined in points 1, 2 and 3 below, obtained solely by mechanical or other physical means under conditions which do not lead to the modification of the oil, and which have not undergone any treatment other than washing, decantation, centrifugation or filtration. Olive oils obtained using solvents, chemical or biochemical reagents, or re-esterification processes, as well as any mixtures with oils of other kinds, are excluded from these subheadings.

    1. For the purposes of subheading 1509 20 00, ‘extra virgin olive oil’ means olive oil having the characteristics of olive oils of category 1 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

    2. Subheading 1509 30 00 covers virgin olive oils which have the characteristics of olive oils of category 2 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

    3. For the purposes of subheading 1509 40 00, ‘other virgin olive oils’ means olive oils having the characteristics of olive oils of category 3 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

  3. Subheading 1509 90 00 covers olive oil obtained by the treatment of olive oils of subheadings 1509 20 00, 1509 30 00 and 1509 40 00, whether or not blended with extra virgin olive oil or virgin olive oil, and having the characteristics of olive oils of categories 4 and 5 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

  4. For the purposes of subheading 1510 10 00, ‘crude olive pomace oil’ means oils with the characteristics of olive oils of category 6 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

  5. Subheading 1510 90 00 covers oils obtained by the treatment of oils of subheading 1510 10 00, whether or not blended with extra virgin olive oil or virgin olive oil, and oils not having the characteristics of the oils referred to in points B, C and D of this additional note.

    Oils of this subheading must have the characteristics of the olive oils of categories 7 and 8 as set out in Annex I to Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91.

3. Subheadings 1522 00 31 and 1522 00 39 do not cover:

  1. residues resulting from the treatment of fatty substances containing oil having an iodine index, determined in accordance with the method laid down in Annex XVI to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91, lower than 70 or higher than 100;

  2. residues resulting from the treatment of fatty substances containing oil having an iodine index higher than 70 or lower than 100, of which the peak area representing the retention volume of betasitosterol(43), determined in accordance with Annex XIX to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91, is less than 93,0 % of the total sterol peak areas.

4. The analytical methods for the determination of the characteristics of the products referred to above are those laid down in the Annexes to Commission Regulation (EEC) No 2568/91. Accordingly, account is to be taken also of the footnotes of Annex I to the Regulation.

5. Food preparations made from products of Chapter 15 presented in measured doses, such as capsules, tablets, pastilles and pills, intended for use as food supplements, are excluded from this Chapter. The essential character of a food supplement is not only given by its ingredients, but also by its specific form of presentation revealing its function as a food supplement, since it determines the dosage, the way in which it is absorbed and the place where it is supposed to become active. Such food preparations are to be classified under heading 2106 insofar as they are not specified or included elsewhere.

Note

1. In this section, the term ‘pellets’ means products which have been agglomerated either directly by compression or by the addition of a binder in a proportion not exceeding 3 % by weight.

CHAPTER 16

PREPARATIONS OF MEAT, OF FISH, OF CRUSTACEANS, MOLLUSCS OR OTHER AQUATIC INVERTEBRATES, OR OF INSECTS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover meat, meat offal, fish, crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, as well as insects, prepared or preserved by the processes specified in Chapter 2 or 3, Note 6 to Chapter 4 or in heading 0504.

2. Food preparations fall in this chapter provided that they contain more than 20 % by weight of sausage, meat, meat offal, blood, insects, fish or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, or any combination thereof. In cases where the preparation contains two or more of the products mentioned above, it is classified in the heading of Chapter 16 corresponding to the component or components which predominate by weight. These provisions do not apply to the stuffed products of heading 1902 or to the preparations of heading 2103 or 2104.

For preparations containing liver, the provisions of the second sentence shall not apply in determining the subheadings within heading  1601  or 1602 .

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheading 1602 10, the expression ‘homogenised preparations’ means preparations of meat, meat offal, blood or insects, finely homogenised, put up for retail sale as food suitable for infants or young children or for dietetic purposes, in containers of a net weight content not exceeding 250 g. For the application of this definition, no account is to be taken of small quantities of any ingredients which may have been added to the preparation for seasoning, preservation or other purposes. These preparations may contain a small quantity of visible pieces of meat, meat offal or insects. This subheading takes precedence over all other subheadings of heading 1602.

2. The fish, crustaceans, molluscs and other aquatic invertebrates specified in the subheadings of heading 1604 or 1605 under their common names only, are of the same species as those mentioned in Chapter 3 under the same name.

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 1602 31 11, 1602 32 11, 1602 39 21, 1602 50 10 and 1602 90 61, the term ‘uncooked’ is to apply to products which have not been subjected to any heat treatment or which have been subjected to a heat treatment insufficient to ensure the coagulation of meat proteins in the whole of the product and which, therefore, in the case of subheadings 1602 50 10 and 1602 90 61, show traces of a pinkish liquid on the cut surface when the product is cut along a line passing through its thickest part.

2. For the purposes of subheadings 1602 41 10, 1602 42 10 and 1602 49 11 to 1602 49 15, the expression ‘cuts thereof’ applies only to prepared or preserved meat which, due to the size and the characteristics of the coherent muscle tissue, is identifiable as having been obtained from hams, shoulders, loins, or collars of domestic swine, as the case may be.

CHAPTER 17

SUGARS AND SUGAR CONFECTIONERY

Note

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. sugar confectionery containing cocoa (heading 1806);

  2. chemically pure sugars (other than sucrose, lactose, maltose, glucose and fructose) or other products of heading 2940; or

  3. medicaments or other products of Chapter 30.

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 1701 12, 1701 13 and 1701 14, ‘raw sugar’ means sugar whose content of sucrose by weight, in the dry state, corresponds to a polarimeter reading of less than 99,5°.

2. Subheading 1701 13 covers only cane sugar obtained without centrifugation, whose content of sucrose by weight, in the dry state, corresponds to a polarimeter reading of 69° or more but less than 93°. The product contains only natural anhedral microcrystals, of irregular shape, not visible to the naked eye, which are surrounded by residues of molasses and other constituents of sugar cane.

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of subheadings 1701 12 10, 1701 12 90, 1701 13 10, 1701 13 90, 1701 14 10 and 1701 14 90, ‘raw sugar’ means sugar, not flavoured or coloured or containing any other added substances, containing, in the dry state, less than 99,5 % by weight of sucrose determined by the polarimetric method.

2. The duty applicable to raw sugar of subheadings 1701 12 10, 1701 13 10 and 1701 14 10 whose yield established according to part B(III) of Annex III to Regulation (EU) No 1308/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council (OJ L 347, 20.12.2013, p. 671) differs from 92 % is fixed in the following manner:

the relevant rate is multiplied by a correcting coefficient obtained by dividing the percentage yield established according to the above provisions by 92.

3. For the purposes of subheading 1701 99 10, ‘white sugar’ means sugar, not flavoured or coloured or containing any other added substances, containing, in the dry state, 99,5 % or more by weight of sucrose, determined by the polarimetric method.

4. For products of subheadings 1702 20 10, 1702 60 95 and 1702 90 71, the sugar content (sucrose, fructose, glucose and maltose, where the fructose and glucose are expressed in sucrose equivalent) is to be determined by applying the high performance liquid chromatography method (the “HPLC method”), using the following formula:

S + 0,95 x (F + G) + M

where:

“S” is the sucrose content determined by the HPLC method;

“F” is the fructose content determined by the HPLC method;

“G” is the glucose content determined by the HPLC method;

“M” is the maltose content determined by the HPLC method.

For products of subheadings 1702 60 80, 1702 90 80 and 1702 90 95, the sucrose content, including other sugars expressed as sucrose, is to be determined by the refractometry method (expressed in degrees Brix in accordance with the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014(43)). For products of subheadings 1702 60 80 and 1702 90 80, the conversion of the results into sucrose equivalent is to be obtained by multiplying the degrees Brix by the coefficient 0,95.

5. For the purposes of subheadings 1702 30 10, 1702 40 10, 1702 60 10 and 1702 90 30, the term ‘isoglucose’ means the product obtained from glucose or its polymers with a content by weight in the dry state of at least 10 % fructose.

For products of those subheadings, the sucrose content, including other sugars expressed as sucrose, is to be determined by the refractometry method (expressed in degrees Brix in accordance with the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014).

6. ‘Inulin syrup’ means:

  1. for the purposes of subheading 1702 60 80, the immediate product obtained by hydrolysis of inulin or oligofructoses, containing in the dry state more than 50 % fructose in free form or as sucrose;

  2. for the purposes of subheading 1702 90 80, the immediate product obtained by hydrolysis of inulin or oligofructoses, containing in the dry state at least 10 % but not more than 50 % of fructose in free form or as sucrose.

The quantity of ‘fructose in free form or as sucrose’ shall be determined using the formula F + 0,5 S/0,95 calculated on the dry matter, where “F” is the fructose content and “S” is the sucrose content, as determined by the High Performance Liquid Chromatography method.

7. When imported in the form of an assortment, goods of subheading 1704 90 are subject to an agricultural component (EA) fixed according to the average content in milkfats, milk proteins, sucrose, isoglucose, glucose and starch of the assortment as a whole.

8. Throughout the nomenclature, mixtures of sugar with small amounts of other substances are classified in Chapter 17, unless they have the character of a preparation classified elsewhere.

CHAPTER 19

PREPARATIONS OF CEREALS, FLOUR, STARCH OR MILK; PASTRYCOOKS' PRODUCTS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. except in the case of stuffed products of heading 1902, food preparations containing more than 20 % by weight of sausage, meat, meat offal, blood, insects, fish or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, or any combination thereof (Chapter 16);

  2. biscuits or other articles made from flour or from starch, specially prepared for use in animal feeding (heading 2309); or

  3. medicaments or other products of Chapter 30.

2. For the purposes of heading 1901:

  1. the term ‘groats’ means cereal groats of Chapter 11;

  2. the terms ‘flour’ and ‘meal’ mean:

    1. cereal flour and meal of Chapter 11, and

    2. flour, meal and powder of vegetable origin of any chapter, other than flour, meal or powder of dried vegetables (heading 0712), of potatoes (heading 1105) or of dried leguminous vegetables (heading 1106).

3. Heading 1904 does not cover preparations containing more than 6 % by weight of cocoa calculated on a totally defatted basis or completely coated with chocolate or other food preparations containing cocoa of heading 1806 (heading 1806).

4. For the purposes of heading 1904, the expression ‘otherwise prepared’ means prepared or processed to an extent beyond that provided for in the headings of or notes to Chapter 10 or 11.

Additional notes

1. Goods of subheadings 1905 31, 1905 32, 1905 40 and 1905 90, presented in the form of an assortment, are subject to an agricultural component (EA) fixed according to the average content in milkfats, milk proteins, sucrose, isoglucose, glucose and starch of the assortment as a whole.

2. The expression ‘sweet biscuits’ in subheading 1905 31 applies only to products having a water content of not more than 12 % by weight and a fat content of not more than 35 % by weight (fillings and coatings are not to be taken into consideration in determining these contents).

3. Subheading 1905 90 20 covers only dry and brittle products.

4. Food preparations of flour, groats, meal, starch or malt extract of heading 1901 as well as those of goods of headings 0401 to 0404 presented in measured doses, such as capsules, tablets, pastilles and pills intended for use as food supplements, are excluded from classification under heading 1901. The essential character of a food supplement is not only given by its ingredients, but also by its specific form of presentation revealing its function as a food supplement, since it determines the dosage, the way in which it is absorbed and the place where it is supposed to become active. Such food preparations are to be classified under heading 2106 insofar as they are not specified or included elsewhere.

CHAPTER 20

PREPARATIONS OF VEGETABLES, FRUIT, NUTS OR OTHER PARTS OF PLANTS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. vegetables, fruit or nuts, prepared or preserved by the processes specified in Chapter 7, 8 or 11;

  2. vegetable fats and oils (Chapter 15);

  3. food preparations containing more than 20 % by weight of sausage, meat, meat offal, blood, insects, fish or crustaceans, molluscs or other aquatic invertebrates, or any combination thereof (Chapter 16);

  4. bakers' wares and other products of heading 1905; or

  5. homogenised composite food preparations of heading 2104.

2. Headings 2007 and 2008 do not apply to fruit jellies, fruit pastes, sugar-coated almonds or the like in the form of sugar confectionery (heading 1704) or chocolate confectionery (heading 1806).

3. Headings 2001, 2004 and 2005 cover, as the case may be, only those products of Chapter 7 or of heading 1105 or 1106 (other than flour, meal and powder of the products of Chapter 8) which have been prepared or preserved by processes other than those referred to in note 1(a).

4. Tomato juice, the dry weight content of which is 7 % or more, is to be classified in heading 2002.

5. For the purposes of heading 2007, the expression ‘obtained by cooking’ means obtained by heat treatment at atmospheric pressure or under reduced pressure to increase the viscosity of a product through reduction of water content or other means.

6. For the purposes of heading 2009, the expression ‘juices, unfermented and not containing added spirit’ means juices of an alcoholic strength by volume (see note 2 to Chapter 22) not exceeding 0,5 % vol.

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheading 2005 10, the expression ‘homogenised vegetables’ means preparations of vegetables, finely homogenised, put up for retail sale as food suitable for infants or young children or for dietetic purposes, in containers of a net weight content not exceeding 250 g. For the application of this definition, no account is to be taken of small quantities of any ingredients which may have been added to the preparation for seasoning, preservation or other purposes. These preparations may contain a small quantity of visible pieces of vegetables. Subheading 2005 10 takes precedence over all other subheadings of heading 2005.

2. For the purposes of subheading 2007 10, the expression ‘homogenised preparations’ means preparations of fruit, finely homogenised, put up for retail sale as food suitable for infants or young children or for dietetic purposes, in containers of a net weight content not exceeding 250 g. For the application of this definition, no account is to be taken of small quantities of any ingredients which may have been added to the preparation for seasoning, preservation or other purposes. These preparations may contain a small quantity of visible pieces of fruit. Subheading 2007 10 takes precedence over all other subheadings of heading 2007.

3. For the purposes of subheadings 2009 12, 2009 21, 2009 31, 2009 41, 2009 61 and 2009 71, the expression ‘Brix value’ means the direct reading of degrees Brix obtained from a Brix hydrometer or of refractive index expressed in terms of percentage sucrose content obtained from a refractometer, at a temperature of 20 °C or corrected for 20 °C if the reading is made at a different temperature.

Additional notes

1. For the purposes of heading 2001, vegetables, fruit, nuts and other edible parts of plants prepared or preserved by vinegar or acetic acid must have a content of free, volatile acid of 0,5 % by weight or more, expressed as acetic acid. In addition, mushrooms of subheading 2001 90 50 should not have a salt content exceeding 2,5 % by weight.

2.

  1. The content of various sugars expressed as sucrose (sugar content) of products classified in this Chapter corresponds to the figure indicated by a refractometer (used in accordance with the method prescribed in the Annex to Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014(43)) at a temperature of 20 °C and multiplied by one of the following factors:

    • 0,93 in respect of products of subheadings 2008 20 to 2008 80, 2008 93, 2008 97 and 2008 99;

    • 0,95 in respect of products of the other headings.

    However, the content of various sugars expressed as sucrose (sugar content) of the following products classified in this Chapter:

    • products manufactured on the basis of seaweed and other algae prepared or preserved by processes not provided for in Chapter 12;

    • products manufactured on the basis of manioc, arrowroot, salep, Jerusalem artichokes, sweet potatoes and similar roots and tubers with high starch or inulin content of heading 0714;

    • products manufactured on the basis of vine leaves;

    corresponds to the figure resulting from a calculation carried out on the basis of measurements which have been obtained applying the high performance liquid chromatography method (the “HPLC method”), using the following formula:

    S + (G + F) × 0,95;

    where:

    “S” is the sucrose content determined by the HPLC method;

    “F” is the fructose content determined by the HPLC method;

    “G” is the glucose content determined by the HPLC method.

  2. The expression ‘Brix value’, mentioned in the subheadings of heading 2009, corresponds to the figure indicated by a refractometer (used in accordance with the method prescribed in the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014(43)) at a temperature of 20 °C.

3. The products of subheadings 2008 20 to 2008 80, 2008 93, 2008 97 and 2008 99 are to be considered as containing added sugar when the ‘sugar content’ thereof exceeds by weight the percentages given hereunder, according to the kind of fruit or edible part of plant concerned:

  • pineapples and grapes: 13 %,

  • other fruits, including mixtures of fruit, and other edible parts of plants: 9 %.

4. For the purposes of subheadings 2008 30 11 to 2008 30 39, 2008 40 11 to 2008 40 39, 2008 50 11 to 2008 50 59, 2008 60 11 to 2008 60 39, 2008 70 11 to 2008 70 59, 2008 80 11 to 2008 80 39, 2008 93 11 to 2008 93 29, 2008 97 12 to 2008 97 38 and 2008 99 11 to 2008 99 40, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  • ‘actual alcoholic strength by mass’: the number of kilograms of pure alcohol contained in 100 kg of the product,

  • ‘% mas’: the symbol for alcoholic strength by mass.

5. The following is to be applied to the products as they are presented:

  1. the added sugar content of products of heading 2009 corresponds to the ‘sugar content’ less the figures given hereunder, according to the kind of juice concerned:

    • lemon or tomato juice: 3,

    • grape juice: 15,

    • other fruit or vegetable juices, including mixtures of juices: 13.

  2. the fruit juices with added sugar, of a Brix value not exceeding 67 and containing less than 50 % by weight of fruit juice lose their original character of fruit juices of heading 2009.

Item (b) does not apply to concentrated natural fruit juices. Consequently, concentrated natural fruit juices are not excluded from heading 2009.

6. For the purposes of subheadings 2009 69 51 and 2009 69 71, ‘concentrated grape juice (including grape must)’ means grape juice (including grape must) for which the figure indicated by a refractometer (used in accordance with the method prescribed in the Annex to Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) No 974/2014(43)) at a temperature of 20 °C is not less than 50,9 %.

7. For the purposes of subheadings 2001 90 92, 2006 00 35, 2006 00 91, 2007 10 91, 2007 99 93, 2008 97 03, 2008 97 05, 2008 97 12, 2008 97 16, 2008 97 32, 2008 97 36, 2008 97 51, 2008 97 72, 2008 97 76, 2008 97 92, 2008 97 94, 2008 97 97, 2008 99 24, 2008 99 31, 2008 99 36, 2008 99 38, 2008 99 48, 2008 99 63, 2009 89 34, 2009 89 36, 2009 89 73, 2009 89 85, 2009 89 88, 2009 89 97, 2009 90 92, 2009 90 95 and 2009 90 97, ‘tropical fruit’ means guavas, mangoes, mangosteens, papaws (papayas), tamarinds, cashew apples, lychees, jackfruit, sapodillo plums, passion fruit, carambola and pitahaya.

CHAPTER 23

RESIDUES AND WASTE FROM THE FOOD INDUSTRIES; PREPARED ANIMAL FODDER

Note

1. Heading 2309 includes products of a kind used in animal feeding, not elsewhere specified or included, obtained by processing vegetable or animal materials to such an extent that they have lost the essential characteristics of the original material, other than vegetable waste, vegetable residues and by-products of such processing.

Subheading note

1. For the purposes of subheading 2306 41, the expression ‘low erucic acid rape or colza seeds’ means seeds as defined in subheading note 1 to Chapter 12.

Additional notes

1. Subheadings 2303 10 11 and 2303 10 19 include only residues from the manufacture of starch from maize and do not cover blends of such residues with products derived from other plants or products derived from maize otherwise than in the course of the production of starch by the wet process.

Their starch content may not exceed 28 % by weight on the dry product, in accordance with the method contained in Annex III, part L, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009, and their fat content cannot exceed 4,5 % by weight on the dry product, determined in accordance with the method contained in Annex III, part H, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009.

2. Subheading 2306 90 05 includes only residues from the extraction of oil of germs of maize and containing the following ingredients in the quantities specified, calculated by weight on the dry product:

  1. products of an oil content of less than 3 %:

    • starch content: less than 45 %,

    • protein content (nitrogen content × 6,25): not less than 11,5 %;

  2. products of an oil content of not less than 3 % and not more than 8 %:

    • starch content: less than 45 %,

    • protein content (nitrogen content × 6,25): not less than 13 %.

Moreover, such residues shall not contain ingredients which are not obtained from maize grains.

For the determination of the starch and protein content, the methods set out in Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009, Annex III, parts L and C, are to be applied.

For the determination of the oil and moisture content, the methods set out in Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009, Annex III, parts H and A, respectively, are to be applied.

Products containing components from parts of maize grains which have been added after processing and have not been subjected to the oil extraction process are excluded.

3. For the purposes of subheadings 2307 00 11, 2307 00 19, 2308 00 11 and 2308 00 19, the following expressions shall have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  • ‘actual alcoholic strength by mass’: the number of kilograms of pure alcohol contained in 100 kg of the product,

  • ‘potential alcoholic strength by mass’: the number of kilograms of pure alcohol capable of being produced by total fermentation of the sugars contained in 100 kg of the product,

  • ‘total alcoholic strength by mass’: the sum of the actual and potential alcoholic strengths by mass,

  • ‘% mas’: the symbol for alcoholic strength by mass.

4. For the purposes of subheadings 2309 10 11 to 2309 10 70 and 2309 90 31 to 2309 90 70, the expression ‘milk products’ means the products of headings 0401, 0402, 0404, 0405 and 0406 and of subheadings 0403 20 11 to 0403 20 39, 0403 90 11 to 0403 90 69, 1702 11 00, 1702 19 00 and 2106 90 51.

5. Subheading 2309 90 20 includes only residues from the manufacture of starch from maize, and does not cover blends of such residues with products derived from other plants or products derived from maize otherwise than in the course of the production of starch by the wet process, containing:

  • screenings from maize used in the wet process in a proportion not exceeding 15 % by weight, and/or

  • residues of maize steep-water, from the wet process, including residues of steep-water used for the manufacture of alcohol or of other starch derived products.

These products may also contain residues from the extraction of maize germ oil by the wet milling process.

Their starch content may not exceed 28 % by weight on the dry product in accordance with the method contained in Annex III, part L, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009, their fat content may not exceed 4,5 % by weight on the dry product determined in accordance with the method contained in Annex III, part H, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009, and their protein content may not exceed 40 % on the dry product determined in accordance with the method contained in Annex III, part C, to Commission Regulation (EC) No 152/2009.

1. Except where their context or note 4 to this chapter otherwise requires, the headings of this chapter cover only products which are in the crude state or which have been washed (even with chemical substances eliminating the impurities without changing the structure of the product), crushed, ground, powdered, levigated, sifted, screened, concentrated by flotation, magnetic separation or other mechanical or physical processes (except crystallisation), but not products which have been roasted, calcined, obtained by mixing or subjected to processing beyond that mentioned in each heading.

The products of this chapter may contain an added anti-dusting agent, provided that such addition does not render the product particularly suitable for specific use rather than for general use.

2. This chapter does not cover:

  1. sublimed sulphur, precipitated sulphur or colloidal sulphur (heading 2802);

  2. earth colours containing 70 % or more by weight of combined iron evaluated as Fe2O3 (heading 2821);

  4. perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations (Chapter 33);

  5. dolomite ramming mix (heading 3816);

  6. setts, curbstones or flagstones (heading 6801); mosaic cubes or the like (heading 6802); roofing, facing or damp-course slates (heading 6803);

  7. precious or semi-precious stones (heading 7102 or 7103);

  8. cultured crystals (other than optical elements) weighing not less than 2,5 g each, of sodium chloride or of magnesium oxide, of heading 3824; optical elements of sodium chloride or of magnesium oxide (heading 9001);

  9. billiard chalks (heading 9504); or

  10. writing or drawing chalks or tailors' chalks (heading 9609).

3. Any products classifiable in heading 2517 and any other heading of the chapter are to be classified in heading 2517.

4. Heading 2530 applies, inter alia, to: vermiculite, perlite and chlorites, unexpanded; earth colours, whether or not calcined or mixed together; natural micaceous iron oxides; meerschaum (whether or not in polished pieces); amber; agglomerated meerschaum and agglomerated amber, in plates, rods, sticks or similar forms, not worked after moulding; jet; strontianite (whether or not calcined), other than strontium oxide; broken pieces of pottery, brick or concrete.

CHAPTER 26

ORES, SLAG AND ASH

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. slag or similar industrial waste prepared as macadam (heading 2517);

  2. natural magnesium carbonate (magnesite), whether or not calcined (heading 2519);

  3. sludges from the storage tanks of petroleum oils, consisting mainly of such oils (heading 2710);

  4. basic slag of Chapter 31;

  5. slag wool, rock wool or similar mineral wools (heading 6806);

  6. waste or scrap of precious metal or of metal clad with precious metal; other waste or scrap containing precious metal or precious-metal compounds, of a kind used principally for the recovery of precious metal (heading 7112 or 8549); or

  7. copper, nickel or cobalt mattes produced by any process of smelting (Section XV).

2. For the purposes of headings 2601 to 2617, the term ‘ores’ means minerals of mineralogical species actually used in the metallurgical industry for the extraction of mercury, of the metals of heading 2844 or of the metals of Section XIV or XV, even if they are intended for non-metallurgical purposes. Headings 2601 to 2617 do not, however, include minerals which have been submitted to processes not normal to the metallurgical industry.

3. Heading 2620 applies only to:

  1. slag, ash and residues of a kind used in industry either for the extraction of metals or as a basis for the manufacture of chemical compounds of metals, excluding ash and residues from the incineration of municipal waste (heading 2621); and

  2. slag, ash and residues containing arsenic, whether or not containing metals, of a kind used either for the extraction of arsenic or metals or for the manufacture of their chemical compounds.

Subheading notes

1. For the purposes of subheading 2620 21, ‘leaded gasoline sludges and leaded anti-knock compound sludges’ mean sludges obtained from storage tanks of leaded gasoline and leaded anti-knock compounds (for example, tetraethyl lead), and consisting essentially of lead, lead compounds and iron oxide.

2. Slag, ash and residues containing arsenic, mercury, thallium or their mixtures, of a kind used for the extraction of arsenic or those metals or for the manufacture of their chemical compounds, are to be classified in subheading 2620 60.

CHAPTER 27

MINERAL FUELS, MINERAL OILS AND PRODUCTS OF THEIR DISTILLATION; BITUMINOUS SUBSTANCES; MINERAL WAXES

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. separate chemically defined organic compounds, other than pure methane and propane which are to be classified in heading 2711;

  2. medicaments of heading 3003 or 3004; or

  3. mixed unsaturated hydrocarbons of heading 3301, 3302 or 3805.

2. References in heading 2710 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 mbar when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (Chapter 39).

3. For the purposes of heading 2710, ‘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:

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

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

  3. such oils in the form of emulsions in water or mixtures with water, such as those resulting from oil 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.

3. For the purposes of subheadings 2707 10, 2707 20, 2707 30 and 2707 40, the terms ‘benzol (benzene)’, ‘toluol (toluene)’, ‘xylol (xylenes)’ and ‘naphthalene’ apply to products which contain more than 50 % by weight of benzene, toluene, xylenes or naphthalene, respectively.

4. For the purposes of subheading 2710 12, ‘light oils and preparations’ are those of which 90 % or more by volume (including losses) distil at 210 °C according to the ISO 3405 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 86 method).

5. For the purposes of the subheadings of heading 2710, the term ‘biodiesel’ means mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids of a kind used as a fuel, derived from animal, vegetable or microbial fats and oils whether or not used.

    The term ‘viscosity V’ means the kinematic viscosity at 50 °C expressed in 10–6 m2 s–1 by the EN ISO 3104 method.

    The term ‘diluted colour C’ means the colour of a product, as determined by the ISO 2049 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 1500 method), after one part of the product has been made up to 100 parts by volume with xylene, toluene or another suitable solvent. The colour must be determined immediately after dilution.

    The term ‘bio-components’ means animal or vegetable fats, animal or vegetable oils, or mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids (FAMAE).

    Subheadings 2710 19 51 to 2710 19 67 and 2710 20 32 to 2710 20 38 cover only fuel oils of natural colour.

    These subheadings do not cover heavy oils defined in paragraph (d) above for which it is not possible to determine:

    • the distillation percentage (zero shall be deemed to be a percentage) at 250 °C by the ISO 3405 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 86 method),

    • the kinematic viscosity at 50 °C by the EN ISO 3104 method,

    • or the diluted colour C by the ISO 2049 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 1500 method).

    Such products fall in subheadings 2710 19 71 to 2710 19 99 or 2710 20 90;

  7. ‘containing biodiesel’ means that the products of subheading 2710 20 have a minimum content of biodiesel, i.e. mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids (FAMAE) of a kind used as a fuel, of 0,5 % by volume (determination by the EN 14078 method).

3. For the purposes of heading 2712, the expression ‘crude petroleum jelly’ (subheading 2712 10 10) is to be taken to apply to petroleum jelly of a natural colour higher than 4,5 by the ISO 2049 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 1500 method).

4. For the purposes of subheadings 2712 90 31 to 2712 90 39, the term ‘crude’ is to be taken to apply to products:

  1. with an oil content of 3,5 % by weight or higher, if their viscosity at 100 °C is lower than 9 × 10–6 m2 s–1 by the EN ISO 3104 method; or

  2. of a natural colour higher than 3 by the ISO 2049 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 1500 method), if their viscosity at 100 °C is 9 × 10–6 m2 s–1 or higher by the EN ISO 3104 method.

5. For the purposes of headings 2710, 2711 and 2712, the term ‘specific process’ is to be taken to apply to the following operations:

  2. redistillation by a very thorough fractionation process;

  3. cracking;

  4. reforming;

  5. extraction by means of selective solvents;

  6. the process comprising all the following operations: processing with concentrated sulphuric acid, oleum or sulphuric anhydride; neutralisation with alkaline agents; decolorisation and purification with naturally active earth, activated earth, activated charcoal or bauxite;

  7. polymerisation;

  8. alkylation;

  9. isomerisation;

  10. (in respect of products of subheadings 2710 19 31 to 2710 19 99 only) desulphurisation with hydrogen resulting in a reduction of at least 85 % of the sulphur content of the products processed (EN ISO 20846, EN ISO 20884 or EN ISO 14596 or EN ISO 24260, EN ISO 20847 and EN ISO 8754 methods);

  11. (in respect of products of heading 2710 only) deparaffining by a process other than filtering;

  12. (in respect of products of subheadings 2710 19 31 to 2710 19 99 only) treatment with hydrogen at a pressure of more than 20 bar and a temperature of more than 250 °C with the use of a catalyst, other than to effect desulphurisation, when the hydrogen constitutes an active element in a chemical reaction. The further treatment with hydrogen of lubricating oils of subheadings 2710 19 71 to 2710 19 99 (for example, hydrofinishing or decolorisation) in order, more especially, to improve colour or stability shall not, however, be deemed to be a specific process;

  13. (in respect of products of subheadings 2710 19 51 to 2710 19 67 only) atmospheric distillation, on condition that less than 30 % of these products distils, by volume, including losses, at 300 °C by the ISO 3405 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 86 method). If 30 % or more by volume, including losses, of such products distils at 300 °C by the ISO 3405 method (equivalent to the ASTM D 86 method), the quantities of products which may be obtained during the atmospheric distillation and which fall in subheadings 2710 12 11 to 2710 12 90 or 2710 19 11 to 2710 19 29 shall be dutiable at the same rates as those provided for under subheadings 2710 19 62 to 2710 19 67 according to the kind and value of the products used and on the net weight of the products obtained. This rule shall not apply to products so obtained which, within a period of six months and subject to such other conditions as may be determined by the competent authorities, are to undergo a specific process or chemical transformation by a process not being a specific process;

  14. (in respect of products of subheadings 2710 19 71 to 2710 19 99 only) treatment by means of a high-frequency electrical brush-discharge;

  15. solely for products of subheading 2712 90 31: de-oiling by fractional crystallisation.

Should any preparatory treatment prior to the above treatments be necessary by reason of technical requirements, the customs exemption is to apply only to the quantities of the products intended for and actually subjected to such of the above treatments; any waste products arising during preparatory treatment are also to be exempt from customs duty.

6. The quantities of products which may be obtained during chemical transformation, or during preparatory treatment which may be necessary by reason of technical requirements, and which fall in headings or subheadings 2707 10 00, 2707 20 00, 2707 30 00, 2707 50 00, 2710, 2711, 2712 10, 2712 20, 2712 90 31 to 2712 90 99 and 2713 90 are to be dutiable at the same rates as those provided for in respect of products ‘for other purposes’, according to the kind and value of the products used and on the net weight of the products obtained. This rule is not to apply to such products of headings 2710 to 2712 which, within a period of six months and subject to such other conditions as may be determined by the competent authorities, are to undergo a specific process or further chemical transformation.

SECTION VI

PRODUCTS OF THE CHEMICAL OR ALLIED INDUSTRIES

Notes

1.

  1. Goods (other than radioactive ores) answering to a description in heading 2844 or 2845 are to be classified in those headings and in no other heading of the nomenclature.

  2. Subject to paragraph (A) above, goods answering to a description in heading 2843, 2846 or 2852 are to be classified in those headings and in no other heading of this section.

2. Subject to note 1 above, goods classifiable in heading 3004, 3005, 3006, 3212, 3303, 3304, 3305, 3306, 3307, 3506, 3707 or 3808 by reason of being put up in measured doses or for retail sale are to be classified in those headings and in no other heading of the nomenclature.

3. 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:

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

  2. presented together; and

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

4. Where a product answers to a description in one or more of the headings in Section VI by virtue of being described by name or function and also to heading 3827, then it is classifiable in a heading that references the product by name or function and not under heading 3827.

CHAPTER 28

INORGANIC CHEMICALS; ORGANIC OR INORGANIC COMPOUNDS OF PRECIOUS METALS, OF RARE-EARTH METALS, OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS OR OF ISOTOPES

Notes

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

  1. separate chemical elements and separate chemically defined compounds, whether or not containing impurities;

  2. the products mentioned in (a) above dissolved in water;

  3. the products mentioned in (a) 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;

  4. the products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above with an added stabiliser (including an anti-caking agent) necessary for their preservation or transport;

  5. the products mentioned in (a), (b), (c) or (d) above with an added anti-dusting agent or a colouring 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.

2. In addition to dithionites and sulphoxylates, stabilised with organic substances (heading 2831), carbonates and peroxocarbonates of inorganic bases (heading 2836), cyanides, cyanide oxides and complex cyanides of inorganic bases (heading 2837), fulminates, cyanates and thiocyanates, of inorganic bases (heading 2842), organic products included in headings 2843 to 2846 and 2852 and carbides (heading 2849), only the following compounds of carbon are to be classified in this chapter:

  8. optical elements, for example, of the halides of the alkali or alkaline-earth metals (heading 9001).

4. Chemically defined complex acids consisting of a non-metal acid of sub-chapter II and a metal acid of sub-chapter IV are to be classified in heading 2811.

5. Headings 2826 to 2842 apply only to metal or ammonium salts or peroxysalts.

Except where the context otherwise requires, double or complex salts are to be classified in heading 2842.

6. Heading 2844 applies only to:

  1. technetium (atomic No 43), promethium (atomic No 61), polonium (atomic No 84) and all elements with an atomic number greater than 84;

  2. natural or artificial radioactive isotopes (including those of the precious metals or of the base metals of Sections XIV and XV), whether or not mixed together;

  3. compounds, inorganic or organic, of these elements or isotopes, whether or not chemically defined, whether or not mixed together;

  4. alloys, dispersions (including cermets), ceramic products and mixtures containing these elements or isotopes or inorganic or organic compounds thereof and having a specific radioactivity exceeding 74 Bq/g (0,002 μCi/g);

  5. spent (irradiated) fuel elements (cartridges) of nuclear reactors;

  6. radioactive residues whether or not usable.

The term ‘isotopes’, for the purposes of this note and of the wording of headings 2844 and 2845, refers to:

  • individual nuclides, excluding, however, those existing in nature in the monoisotopic state,

  • 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 2853 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 3818.

Subheading note

1. For the purposes of subheading 2852 10, the expression ‘chemically defined’ means all organic or inorganic compounds of mercury meeting the requirements of paragraphs (a) to (e) of note 1 to Chapter 28 or paragraphs (a) to (h) of note 1 to Chapter 29.

Additional note

1. Unless provided otherwise, the salts specified in subheadings include acid salts and basic salts.

CHAPTER 29

ORGANIC CHEMICALS

Notes

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

  1. separate chemically defined organic compounds, whether or not containing impurities;

  2. 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);

  3. the products of headings 2936 to 2939 or the sugar ethers, sugar acetals and sugar esters, and their salts, of heading 2940, or the products of heading 2941, whether or not chemically defined;

  4. the products mentioned in (a), (b) or (c) above dissolved in water;

  5. 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 a specific use rather than for general use;

  6. 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;

  7. the products mentioned in (a), (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) above with an added anti-dusting agent or a colouring or odoriferous substance or an emetic 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;

  8. the following products, diluted to standard strengths, for the production of azo dyes: diazonium salts, couplers used for these salts and diazotizable amines and their salts.

2. This chapter does not cover:

  1. goods of heading 1504 or crude glycerol of heading 1520;

  2. ethyl alcohol (heading 2207 or 2208);

  3. methane or propane (heading 2711);

  4. the compounds of carbon mentioned in note 2 to Chapter 28;

  5. immunological products of heading 3002;

  6. urea (heading 3102 or 3105);

  7. colouring matter of vegetable or animal origin (heading 3203), synthetic organic colouring matter, synthetic organic products of a kind used as fluorescent brightening agents or as luminophores (heading 3204) or dyes or other colouring matter put up in forms or packings for retail sale (heading 3212);

  8. enzymes (heading 3507);

  9. 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 3606);

  10. products put up as charges for fire-extinguishers or put up in fire-extinguishing grenades, of heading 3813; ink removers put up in packings for retail sale, of heading 3824; or

  11. optical elements, for example, of ethylenediamine tartrate (heading 9001).

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 2904 to 2906, 2908 to 2911 and 2913 to 2920, 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 2929.

For the purposes of headings 2911, 2912, 2914, 2918 and 2922, ‘oxygen function’, the characteristic organic oxygen-containing group of those respective headings, is restricted to the oxygen-functions referred to in headings 2905 to 2920.

5.

  1. 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.

  2. 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.

  3. 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 2942, are to be classified in the heading appropriate to the organic compound;

    2. salts formed between organic compounds of sub-chapters I to X or heading 2942 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; and

    3. coordination compounds, other than products classifiable in sub-chapter XI or heading 2941, are to be classified in the heading which occurs last in numerical order in Chapter 29, among those appropriate to the fragments formed by ‘cleaving’ of all metal bonds, other than metal-carbon bonds.

  4. Metal alcoholates are to be classified in the same heading as the corresponding alcohols except in the case of ethanol (heading 2905).

  5. Halides of carboxylic acids are to be classified in the same heading as the corresponding acids.

6. The compounds of headings 2930 and 2931 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 or lead) directly linked to carbon atoms.

Heading 2930 (organo-sulphur compounds) and heading 2931 (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 2932, 2933 and 2934 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 2937:

  1. the term ‘hormones’ includes hormone-releasing or hormone-stimulating factors, hormone inhibitors and hormone antagonists (anti-hormones);

  2. the expression ‘used primarily as hormones’ applies not only to hormone derivatives and structural analogues used primarily for their hormonal effect, but also to those derivatives and structural analogues used primarily as intermediates in the synthesis of products of this heading.

Subheading notes

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.

2. Note 3 to Chapter 29 does not apply to the subheadings of this chapter.

CHAPTER 37

PHOTOGRAPHIC OR CINEMATOGRAPHIC GOODS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover waste or scrap.

2. In this chapter, the word ‘photographic’ relates to the process by which visible images are formed, directly or indirectly, by the action of light or other forms of radiation on photosensitive, including thermosensitive, surfaces.

Additional notes

1. In the case of sound films imported in two bands (the band bearing only the images and the band used for recording the sound), each band is to be classified in its appropriate heading.

2. The expression ‘newsreels’ (subheading 3706 90 52) is to be taken to apply to films of length of less than 330 m, and depicting current events of a political, sporting, military, scientific, literary, folkloric, touristic, society, etc., nature.

CHAPTER 38

MISCELLANEOUS CHEMICAL PRODUCTS

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. separate chemically defined elements or compounds with the exception of the following:

    1. artificial graphite (heading 3801);

    2. insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, anti-sprouting products and plant-growth regulators, disinfectants and similar products, put up as described in heading 3808;

    3. products put up as charges for fire-extinguishers or put up in fire-extinguishing grenades (heading 3813);

    4. certified reference materials specified in note 2 below;

    5. products specified in note 3(a) or 3(c) below;

  2. mixtures of chemicals with foodstuffs or other substances with nutritive value, of a kind used in the preparation of human foodstuffs (generally, heading 2106);

  3. products of heading 2404;

  4. slag, ash and residues (including sludges, other than sewage sludge), containing metals, arsenic or their mixtures and meeting the requirements of note 3(a) or 3(b) to Chapter 26 (heading 2620);

  5. medicaments (heading 3003 or 3004); or

  6. spent catalysts of a kind used for the extraction of base metals or for the manufacture of chemical compounds of base metals (heading 2620), spent catalysts of a kind used principally for the recovery of precious metal (heading 7112) or catalysts consisting of metals or metal alloys in the form of, for example, finely divided powder or woven gauze (Section XIV or XV).

2.

  1. For the purpose of heading 3822, the expression ‘certified reference materials’ means reference materials which are accompanied by a certificate which indicates the values of the certified properties, the methods used to determine these values and the degree of certainty associated with each value and which are suitable for analytical, calibrating or referencing purposes.

  2. With the exception of the products of Chapter 28 or 29, for the classification of certified reference materials, heading 3822 shall take precedence over any other heading in the nomenclature.

3. Heading 3824 includes the following goods which are not to be classified in any other heading of the nomenclature:

  1. cultured crystals (other than optical elements) weighing not less than 2,5 g each, of magnesium oxide or of the halides of the alkali or alkaline-earth metals;

  2. fusel oil; Dippel's oil;

  3. ink removers put up in packings for retail sale;

  4. stencil correctors, other correcting fluids and correction tapes (other than those of heading 9612), put up in packings for retail sale; and

  5. ceramic firing testers, fusible (for example, Seger cones).

4. Throughout the nomenclature, ‘municipal waste’ means waste of a kind collected from households, hotels, restaurants, hospitals, shops, offices, etc., road and pavement sweepings, as well as construction and demolition waste. Municipal waste generally contains a large variety of materials such as plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass, metals, food materials, broken furniture and other damaged or discarded articles. The term ‘municipal waste’, however, does not cover:

  1. individual materials or articles segregated from the waste, for example wastes of plastics, rubber, wood, paper, textiles, glass or metals, electrical and electronic waste and scrap (including spent batteries) which fall in their appropriate headings of the nomenclature;

  2. industrial waste;

  3. waste pharmaceuticals, as defined in note 4(k) to Chapter 30; or

  4. clinical waste, as defined in note 6(a) below.

5. For the purposes of heading 3825, ‘sewage sludge’ means sludge arising from urban effluent treatment plant and includes pre-treatment waste, scourings and unstabilised sludge. Stabilised sludge when suitable for use as fertiliser is excluded (Chapter 31).

6. For the purposes of heading 3825, the expression ‘other wastes’ applies to:

  1. clinical waste, that is, contaminated waste arising from medical research, diagnosis, treatment or other medical, surgical, dental or veterinary procedures, which often contain pathogens and pharmaceutical substances and require special disposal procedures (for example, soiled dressings, used gloves and used syringes);

  2. waste organic solvents;

  3. wastes of metal pickling liquors, hydraulic fluids, brake fluids and anti-freezing fluids; and

  4. other wastes from chemical or allied industries.

The expression ‘other wastes’ does not, however, cover wastes which contain mainly petroleum oils or oils obtained from bituminous minerals (heading 2710).

7. For the purposes of heading 3826, the term ‘biodiesel’ means mono-alkyl esters of fatty acids of a kind used as a fuel, derived from animal, vegetable or microbial fats and oils whether or not used.

SECTION VII

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:

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

  2. presented together; and

  3. 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 3918 or 3919, plastics, rubber, and articles thereof, printed with motifs, characters or pictorial representations, which are not merely subsidiary 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 3901 to 3914 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:

  1. lubricating preparations of heading 2710 or 3403;

  2. waxes of heading 2712 or 3404;

  3. separate chemically defined organic compounds (Chapter 29);

  4. heparin or its salts (heading 3001);

  5. solutions (other than collodions) consisting of any of the products specified in headings 3901 to 3913 in volatile organic solvents when the weight of the solvent exceeds 50 % of the weight of the solution (heading 3208); stamping foils of heading 3212;

  6. organic surface-active agents or preparations of heading 3402;

  7. run gums or ester gums (heading 3806);

  8. prepared additives for mineral oils (including gasoline) or for other liquids used for the same purposes as mineral oils (heading 3811);

  9. prepared hydraulic fluids based on polyglycols, silicones or other polymers of Chapter 39 (heading 3819);

  10. diagnostic or laboratory reagents on a backing of plastics (heading 3822);

  11. synthetic rubber, as defined for the purposes of Chapter 40, or articles thereof;

  12. saddlery or harness (heading 4201) or trunks, suitcases, handbags or other containers of heading 4202;

  13. plaits, wickerwork or other articles of Chapter 46;

  14. wallcoverings of heading 4814;

  15. goods of Section XI (textiles and textile articles);

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

  17. imitation jewellery of heading 7117;

  18. articles of Section XVI (machines and mechanical or electrical appliances);

  19. parts of aircraft or vehicles of Section XVII;

  20. articles of Chapter 90 (for example, optical elements, spectacle frames, drawing instruments);

  21. articles of Chapter 91 (for example, clock or watch cases);

  22. articles of Chapter 92 (for example, musical instruments or parts thereof);

  23. articles of Chapter 94 (for example, furniture, luminaires and lighting fittings, illuminated signs, prefabricated buildings);

  24. articles of Chapter 95 (for example, toys, games, sports requisites); or

  25. 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, and monopods, bipods, tripods and similar articles).

3. Headings 3901 to 3911 apply only to goods of a kind produced by chemical synthesis, falling in the following categories:

  1. liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than 60 % by volume distils at 300 °C, after conversion to 1 013 mbar when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (headings 3901 and 3902);

  2. resins, not highly polymerised, of the coumarone-indene type (heading 3911);

  3. other synthetic polymers with an average of at least five monomer units;

  4. silicones (heading 3910);

  5. resols (heading 3909) 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 3901 to 3914, the expression ‘primary forms’ applies only to the following forms:

  1. liquids and pastes, including dispersions (emulsions and suspensions) and solutions;

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

7. Heading 3915 does not apply to waste, parings and scrap of a single thermoplastic material, transformed into primary forms (headings 3901 to 3914).

8. For the purposes of heading 3917, the expression ‘tubes, pipes and hoses’ means hollow products, whether semi-manufactured 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 one-and-a-half 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 3918, 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 3920 and 3921, 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 3925 applies only to the following articles, not being products covered by any of the earlier headings of sub-chapter II:

  1. reservoirs, tanks (including septic tanks), vats and similar containers, of a capacity exceeding 300 litres;

  2. structural elements used, for example, in floors, walls or partitions, ceilings or roofs;

  3. gutters and fittings therefor;

  4. doors, windows and their frames and thresholds for doors;

  5. balconies, balustrades, fencing, gates and similar barriers;

  6. shutters, blinds (including venetian blinds) and similar articles and parts and fittings thereof;

  7. large-scale shelving for assembly and permanent installation, for example, in shops, workshops, warehouses;

  8. ornamental architectural features, for example, flutings, cupolas, dovecotes; and

  9. 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:

  1. where there is a subheading named ‘Other’ in the same series:

    1. the designation in a subheading of a polymer by the prefix ‘poly’ (for example, 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, 3901 40, 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;

  2. 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;

    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 purposes of subheading 3920 43, the term ‘plasticisers’ includes secondary plasticisers.

Additional note

1. Where the woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics, felt or nonwovens are present merely for reinforcing purposes, gloves, mittens or mitts impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics belong to Chapter 39, even if they are:

  • made up from woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics (other than those of heading 5903), felt or nonwovens impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics, or

  • made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics, felt or nonwovens and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics.

  6. articles of Chapter 95 (other than sports gloves, mittens and mitts and articles of headings 4011 to 4013).

3. In headings 4001 to 4003 and 4005, the expression ‘primary forms’ applies only to the following forms:

  1. liquids and pastes (including latex, whether or not pre-vulcanised, and other dispersions and solutions);

  2. blocks of irregular shape, lumps, bales, powders, granules, crumbs and similar bulk forms.

4. In note 1 to this chapter and in heading 4002, the expression ‘synthetic rubber’ applies to:

  1. unsaturated synthetic substances which can be irreversibly transformed by vulcanisation with sulphur into non-thermoplastic substances which, at a temperature between 18 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)(2) and (3) is also permitted. However, the presence of any substances not necessary for the cross-linking, such as extenders, plasticisers and fillers, is not permitted;

  2. thioplasts (TM); and

  3. 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 abovementioned products comply with the requirements concerning vulcanisation, elongation and recovery in (a) above.

5.

  1. Headings 4001 and 4002 do not apply to any rubber or mixture of rubbers which has been compounded, before or after coagulation, with:

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

    2. pigments or other colouring matter, other than those added solely for the purpose of identification;

    3. 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).

  2. The presence of the following substances in any rubber or mixture of rubbers shall not affect its classification in heading 4001 or 4002, as the case may be, provided that such rubber or mixture of rubbers retains its essential character as a raw material:

    1. emulsifiers or anti-tack agents;

    2. small amounts of breakdown products of emulsifiers;

    3. very small amounts of the following: heat-sensitive agents (generally, for obtaining thermosensitive rubber latexes), cationic surface-active agents (generally, for obtaining electropositive 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 4004, 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 4008.

8. Heading 4010 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 4001, 4002, 4003, 4005 and 4008, 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 4008, the expressions ‘rods’ and ‘profile shapes’ apply only to such products, whether or not cut to length or surface-worked but not otherwise worked.

Additional note

1. Where the woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics, felt or nonwovens are present merely for reinforcing purposes, gloves, mittens or mitts impregnated, coated or covered with cellular rubber belong to Chapter 40, even if they are:

  • made up from woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics (other than those of heading 5906), felt or nonwovens impregnated, coated or covered with cellular rubber, or

  • made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered woven, knitted or crocheted fabrics, felt or nonwovens and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with cellular rubber.

CHAPTER 41

RAW HIDES AND SKINS (OTHER THAN FURSKINS) AND LEATHER

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. parings or similar waste, of raw hides or skins (heading 0511);

  2. birdskins or parts of birdskins, with their feathers or down, of heading 0505 or 6701; or

  3. hides or skins, with the hair or wool on, raw, tanned or dressed (Chapter 43); the following are, however, to be classified in Chapter 41, namely, raw hides and skins with the hair or wool on, of bovine animals (including buffalo), of equine animals, of sheep or lambs (except Astrakhan, Broadtail, Caracul, Persian or similar lambs, Indian, Chinese, Mongolian or Tibetan lambs), of goats or kids (except Yemen, Mongolian or Tibetan goats and kids), of swine (including peccary), of chamois, of gazelle, of camels (including dromedaries), of reindeer, of elk, of deer, of roebucks or of dogs.

2.

  1. Headings 4104 to 4106 do not cover hides and skins which have undergone a tanning (including pre-tanning) process which is reversible (headings 4101 to 4103, as the case may be).

  2. For the purposes of headings 4104 to 4106, the term ‘crust’ includes hides and skins that have been retanned, coloured or fat-liquored (stuffed) prior to drying.

3. Throughout the nomenclature, the expression ‘composition leather’ means only substances of the kind referred to in heading 4115.

    3. having a brightness of less than 60 %, a caliper of 254 micrometres (microns) or less and an ash content of more than 8 %.

Heading 4802 does not, however, cover filter paper or paperboard (including tea-bag paper) or felt paper or paperboard.

6. In this chapter, ‘kraft paper and paperboard’ means paper and paperboard of which not less than 80 % by weight of the total fibre content consists of fibres obtained by the chemical sulphate or soda processes.

7. Except where the terms of the headings otherwise require, paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres answering to a description in two or more of the headings 4801 to 4811 are to be classified under that one of such headings which occurs last in numerical order in the nomenclature.

8. Headings 4803 to 4809 apply only to paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and webs of cellulose fibres:

  1. in strips or rolls of a width exceeding 36 cm; or

  2. in rectangular (including square) sheets with one side exceeding 36 cm and the other side exceeding 15 cm in the unfolded state.

9. For the purposes of heading 4814, the expression ‘wallpaper and similar wallcoverings’ applies only to:

  1. paper in rolls, of a width of not less than 45 cm and not more than 160 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration:

    1. grained, embossed, surface-coloured, design-printed or otherwise surface-decorated (for example, with textile flock), whether or not coated or covered with transparent protective plastics;

    2. with an uneven surface resulting from the incorporation of particles of wood, straw, etc.;

    3. coated or covered on the face side with plastics, the layer of plastics being grained, embossed, coloured, design-printed or otherwise decorated; or

    4. covered on the face side with plaiting material, whether or not bound together in parallel strands or woven;

  2. borders and friezes, of paper, treated as above, whether or not in rolls, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration;

  3. wallcoverings of paper made up of several panels, in rolls or sheets, printed so as to make up a scene, design or motif when applied to a wall.

Products on a base of paper or paperboard, suitable for use both as floor coverings and as wallcoverings, are to be classified in heading 4823.

10. Heading 4820 does not cover loose sheets or cards, cut to size, whether or not printed, embossed or perforated.

11. Heading 4823 applies, inter alia, to perforated paper or paperboard cards for jacquard or similar machines and paper lace.

12. Except for the goods of heading 4814 or 4821, paper, paperboard, cellulose wadding and articles thereof, printed with motifs, characters or pictorial representations, which are not merely subsidiary to the primary use of the goods, fall in Chapter 49.

2.

  1. Goods classifiable in Chapters 50 to 55 or in heading 5809 or 5902 and of a mixture of two or more textile materials are to be classified as if consisting wholly of that one textile material which predominates by weight over any other single textile material.

    When no one textile material predominates by weight, the goods are to be classified as if consisting wholly of that one textile material which is covered by the heading which occurs last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.

  2. For the purposes of the above rule:

    1. gimped horsehair yarn (heading 5110) and metallised yarn (heading 5605) are to be treated as a single textile material the weight of which is to be taken as the aggregate of the weights of its components; for the classification of woven fabrics, metal thread is to be regarded as a textile material;

    2. the choice of the appropriate heading shall be effected by determining first the chapter and then the applicable heading within that chapter, disregarding any materials not classified in that chapter;

    3. when both Chapters 54 and 55 are involved with any other chapter, Chapters 54 and 55 are to be treated as a single chapter;

    4. where a chapter or a heading refers to goods of different textile materials, such materials are to be treated as a single textile material.

  3. The provisions of paragraphs (A) and (B) above apply also to the yarns referred to in note 3, 4, 5 or 6 below.

3.

  1. For the purposes of this section, and subject to the exceptions in paragraph (B) below, yarns (single, multiple (folded) or cabled) of the following descriptions are to be treated as ‘twine, cordage, ropes and cables’:

    1. of silk or waste silk, measuring more than 20 000 decitex;

    2. of man-made fibres (including yarn of two or more monofilaments of Chapter 54), measuring more than 10 000 decitex;

    3. of true hemp or flax:

      1. polished or glazed, measuring 1 429 decitex or more; or

      2. not polished or glazed, measuring more than 20 000 decitex;

    4. of coir, consisting of three or more plies;

    5. of other vegetable fibres, measuring more than 20 000 decitex; or

      2. 125 g in the case of all other yarns of less than 2 000 decitex; or

      3. 500 g in other cases;

    3. in hanks or skeins comprising several smaller hanks or skeins separated by dividing threads which render them independent one of the other, each of uniform weight not exceeding:

      1. 85 g in the case of silk, waste silk or man-made filament yarn; or

      2. 125 g in other cases.

  2. Exceptions:

    1. single yarn of any textile material, except:

5. For the purposes of headings 5204, 5401 and 5508, the expression ‘sewing thread’ means multiple (folded) or cabled yarn:

  1. put up on supports (for example, reels, tubes) of a weight (including support) not exceeding 1 000 grams;

  2. dressed for use as sewing thread; and

  3. with a final ‘Z’ twist.

6. For the purposes of this section, the expression ‘high-tenacity yarn’ means yarn having a tenacity, expressed in cN/tex (centinewtons per tex), greater than the following:

60 cN/tex,

— multiple (folded) or cabled yarn of nylon or other polyamides, or of polyesters:

53 cN/tex,

— single, multiple (folded) or cabled yarn of viscose rayon:

  7. knitted or crocheted to shape, whether presented as separate items or in the form of a number of items in the length.

8. For the purposes of Chapters 50 to 60:

  1. Chapters 50 to 55 and 60 and, except where the context otherwise requires, Chapters 56 to 59 do not apply to goods made up within the meaning of note 7 above; and

  2. Chapters 50 to 55 and 60 do not apply to goods of Chapters 56 to 59.

9. The woven fabrics of Chapters 50 to 55 include fabrics consisting of layers of parallel textile yarns superimposed on each other at acute or right angles. These layers are bonded at the intersections of the yarns by an adhesive or by thermal bonding.

10. Elastic products consisting of textile materials combined with rubber threads are classified in this section.

11. For the purposes of this section, the expression ‘impregnated’ includes ‘dipped’.

12. For the purposes of this section, the expression ‘polyamides’ includes ‘aramids’.

13. For the purposes of this section and, where applicable, throughout the nomenclature, the expression ‘elastomeric yarn’ means 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.

14. Unless the context otherwise requires, textile garments of different headings are to be classified in their own headings, even if put up in sets for retail sale. For the purposes of this note, the expression ‘textile garments’ means garments of headings 6101 to 6114 and headings 6201 to 6211.

15.

Subheading notes

1. In this section and, where applicable, throughout the nomenclature, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  1. ‘Unbleached yarn’:

    Yarn which:

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

    2. 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).

  2. ‘Bleached yarn’:

    Yarn which:

    1. 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;

    2. consists of a mixture of unbleached and bleached fibres; or

    3. is multiple (folded) or cabled and consists of unbleached and bleached yarns.

  3. ‘Coloured (dyed or printed) yarn’:

    Yarn which:

    1. is dyed (whether or not in the mass) other than white or in a fugitive colour, or printed, or made from dyed or printed fibres;

    2. consists of a mixture of dyed fibres of different colours or of a mixture of unbleached or bleached fibres with coloured fibres (marl or mixture yarns), or is printed in one or more colours at intervals to give the impression of dots;

    3. is obtained from slivers or rovings which have been printed; or

    4. 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.

  4. ‘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.

  5. ‘Bleached woven fabric’:

    Woven fabric which:

    1. has been bleached or, unless the context otherwise requires, dyed white or treated with a white dressing, in the piece;

    2. consists of bleached yarn; or

    3. consists of unbleached and bleached yarn.

  6. ‘Dyed woven fabric’:

    Woven fabric which:

    1. is dyed a single uniform colour other than white (unless the context otherwise requires) or has been treated with a coloured finish other than white (unless the context otherwise requires), in the piece; or

    2. consists of coloured yarn of a single uniform colour.

  7. ‘Woven fabric of yarns of different colours’:

    Woven fabric (other than printed woven fabric) which:

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

    2. consists of unbleached or bleached yarn and coloured yarn; or

    3. consists of marl or mixture yarns.

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

  8. ‘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 (d) to (h) above apply, mutatis mutandis, to knitted or crocheted fabrics.

  9. ‘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.

  1. 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 5809 consisting of the same textile materials.

  2. For the application of this rule:

    1. where appropriate, only the part which determines the classification under interpretative rule 3 shall be taken into account;

    2. 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;

    3. in the case of embroidery of heading 5810 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.

CHAPTER 54

MAN-MADE FILAMENTS; STRIP AND THE LIKE OF MAN-MADE TEXTILE MATERIALS

Notes

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

  1. by polymerisation of organic monomers to produce polymers such as polyamides, polyesters, polyolefins or polyurethanes, or by chemical modification of polymers produced by this process (for example, poly(vinyl alcohol) prepared by the hydrolysis of poly(vinyl acetate)); or

  2. by dissolution or chemical treatment of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose) to produce polymers such as cuprammonium rayon (cupro) or viscose rayon, or by chemical modification of natural organic polymers (for example, cellulose, casein and other proteins, or alginic acid), to produce polymers such as cellulose acetate 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). Strip and the like of heading 5404 or 5405 are not considered to be man-made fibres.

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

2. Headings 5402 and 5403 do not apply to synthetic or artificial filament tow of Chapter 55.

CHAPTER 56

WADDING, FELT AND NONWOVENS; SPECIAL YARNS; TWINE, CORDAGE, ROPES AND CABLES AND ARTICLES THEREOF

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. 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 3401, polishes, creams or similar preparations of heading 3405, fabric softeners of heading 3809), where the textile material is present merely as a carrying medium;

  2. textile products of heading 5811;

  3. natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (heading 6805);

  4. agglomerated or reconstituted mica, on a backing of felt or nonwovens (heading 6814);

  5. metal foil on a backing of felt or nonwovens (generally, Section XIV or XV); or

  6. sanitary towels (pads) and tampons, napkins (diapers) and napkin liners and similar articles of heading 9619.

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 5602 and 5603 cover, respectively, felt and nonwovens, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics or rubber, whatever the nature of these materials (compact or cellular).

Heading 5603 also includes nonwovens in which plastics or rubber forms the bonding substance.

Headings 5602 and 5603 do not, however, cover:

  1. 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);

  2. 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

  3. 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 5604 does not cover textile yarn, or strip or the like of heading 5404 or 5405, 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.

CHAPTER 59

IMPREGNATED, COATED, COVERED OR LAMINATED TEXTILE FABRICS; TEXTILE ARTICLES OF A KIND SUITABLE FOR INDUSTRIAL USE

Notes

1. Except where the context otherwise requires, for the purposes of this chapter, the expression ‘textile fabrics’ applies only to the woven fabrics of Chapters 50 to 55 and headings 5803 and 5806, the braids and ornamental trimmings in the piece of heading 5808 and the knitted or crocheted fabrics of headings 6002 to 6006.

2. Heading 5903 applies to:

  1. textile fabrics, impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with plastics, whatever the weight per square metre and whatever the nature of the plastic material (compact or cellular), other than:

    1. fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually, Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;

    2. products which cannot, without fracturing, be bent manually around a cylinder of a diameter of 7 mm, at a temperature between 15 and 30 °C (usually, Chapter 39);

    3. products in which the textile fabric is either completely embedded in plastics or entirely coated or covered on both sides with such material, 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);

    4. fabrics partially coated or partially covered with plastics and bearing designs resulting from these treatments (usually, Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60);

    5. plates, sheets or strip of cellular plastics, combined with textile fabric, where the textile fabric is present merely for reinforcing purposes (Chapter 39); or

    6. textile products of heading 5811;

  2. fabrics made from yarn, strip or the like, impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with plastics, of heading 5604.

3. For the purposes of heading 5903, ‘textile fabrics laminated with plastics’ means products made by the assembly of one or more layers of fabrics with one or more sheets or film of plastics which are combined by any process that bonds the layers together, whether or not the sheets or film of plastics are visible to the naked eye in the cross-section.

4. For the purposes of heading 5905, the expression ‘textile wallcoverings’ applies to products in rolls, of a width of not less than 45 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling decoration, consisting of a textile surface which has been fixed on a backing or has been treated on the back (impregnated or coated to permit pasting).

This heading does not, however, apply to wallcoverings consisting of textile flock or dust fixed directly on a backing of paper (heading 4814) or on a textile backing (generally, heading 5907).

5. For the purposes of heading 5906, the expression ‘rubberised textile fabrics’ means:

  1. textile fabrics impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with rubber:

    • weighing not more than 1 500 g/m2, or

    • weighing more than 1 500 g/m2 and containing more than 50 % by weight of textile material;

  2. fabrics made from yarn, strip or the like, impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber, of heading 5604; and

  3. fabrics composed of parallel textile yarns agglomerated with rubber, irrespective of their weight per square metre.

This heading does not, however, apply to plates, sheets or strip of cellular rubber, combined with textile fabric, where the textile fabric is present merely for reinforcing purposes (Chapter 40), or textile products of heading 5811.

6. Heading 5907 does not apply to:

  1. fabrics in which the impregnation, coating or covering cannot be seen with the naked eye (usually Chapters 50 to 55, 58 or 60); for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour;

  2. fabrics painted with designs (other than painted canvas being theatrical scenery, studio backcloths or the like);

  3. fabrics partially covered with flock, dust, powdered cork or the like and bearing designs resulting from these treatments. However, imitation pile fabrics remain classified in this heading;

  4. fabrics finished with normal dressings having a basis of amylaceous or similar substances;

  5. wood veneered on a backing of textile fabrics (heading 4408);

  6. natural or artificial abrasive powder or grain, on a backing of textile fabrics (heading 6805);

  7. agglomerated or reconstituted mica, on a backing of textile fabrics (heading 6814); or

  8. metal foil on a backing of textile fabrics (generally Section XIV or XV).

7. Heading 5910 does not apply to:

  1. transmission or conveyor belting, of textile material, of a thickness of less than 3 mm; or

  2. transmission or conveyor 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 (heading 4010).

8. Heading 5911 applies to the following goods, which do not fall in any other heading of Section XI:

  1. textile products in the piece, cut to length or simply cut to rectangular (including square) shape (other than those having the character of the products of headings 5908 to 5910), the following only:

    • textile fabrics, felt and felt-lined woven fabrics, coated, covered or laminated with rubber, leather or other material, of a kind used for card clothing, and similar fabrics of a kind used for other technical purposes, including narrow fabrics made of velvet impregnated with rubber, for covering weaving spindles (weaving beams),

    • bolting cloth,

    • filtering or straining cloth of a kind used in oil-presses or the like, of textile material or of human hair,

    • flat woven textile fabrics with multiple warp or weft, whether or not felted, impregnated or coated, of a kind used in machinery or for other technical purposes,

    • textile fabrics reinforced with metal, of a kind used for technical purposes,

    • cords, braids and the like, whether or not coated, impregnated or reinforced with metal, of a kind used in industry as packing or lubricating materials;

  2. textile articles (other than those of headings 5908 to 5910) of a kind used for technical purposes (for example, textile fabrics and felts, endless or fitted with linking devices, of a kind used in papermaking or similar machines (for example, for pulp or asbestos-cement), gaskets, washers, polishing discs and other machinery parts).

CHAPTER 61

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:

  1. goods of heading 6212;

  2. worn clothing or other worn articles of heading 6309; or

  3. orthopaedic appliances, surgical belts, trusses or the like (heading 9021).

3. For the purposes of headings 6103 and 6104:

  1. 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 same 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.

  2. The term ‘ensemble’ means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 6107, 6108 or 6109), 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 tracksuits or ski suits, of heading 6112.

4. Headings 6105 and 6106 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 × 10 cm. Heading 6105 does not cover sleeveless garments.

‘Shirts’ and ‘shirts-blouses’ are garments designed to cover the upper part of the body, having long or short sleeves and a full or partial opening starting at the neckline. ‘Blouses’ are loose-fitting garments also designed to cover the upper part of the body but may be sleeveless and with or without an opening at the neckline. ‘Shirts’, ‘shirt-blouses’ and ‘blouses’ may also have a collar.

5. Heading 6109 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 6111:

  1. the expression ‘babies' garments and clothing accessories’ means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86 cm;

  2. articles which are prima facie classifiable both in heading 6111 and in other headings of this chapter are to be classified in heading 6111.

7. For the purposes of heading 6112, ‘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 of either:

  1. 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

  2. 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, windcheater, 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.

8. Garments which are prima facie classifiable both in heading 6113 and in other headings of this chapter, excluding heading 6111, are to be classified in heading 6113.

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.

Additional notes

1. For the application of note 3(b) to this chapter, the components of an ensemble must be made up entirely in a single identical fabric, subject to compliance with the other conditions laid down in the said note.

For this purpose:

  • the fabric used can be unbleached, bleached, dyed, of yarns of different colours or printed,

  • a pullover or waistcoat with ribbing is to be considered as a component of an ensemble, even if there is no ribbing on the component intended to cover the lower part of the body, provided that the ribbing is not sewn on but produced directly by the knitting process.

Sets of garments are not regarded as ensembles when their components are made up in different fabrics, even if the difference is due only to their respective colours.

All the components of an ensemble must be presented together for retail sale as a single unit. Individual wrapping or separate labelling of each component of such a single unit does not influence its classification as an ensemble.

2. For the purposes of heading 6109, the terms ‘singlets’ and ‘other vests’ include garments, even if of a fancy design, worn next to the body, without collar, with or without sleeves, including those with shoulder straps.

These garments, which are intended to cover the upper part of the body, often possess many characteristics in common with those of T-shirts or with more traditional kinds of singlets and other vests of heading 6109.

3. Heading 6111 and subheadings 6116 10 20 and 6116 10 80 include gloves, mittens and mitts, impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber, even if they are:

  • made up from knitted or crocheted textile fabrics impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber of heading 5903 or 5906, or

  • made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered knitted or crocheted textile fabrics and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber.

Where knitted or crocheted textile fabrics serve only as reinforcement, gloves, mittens or mitts impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics or cellular rubber belong in Chapter 39 or 40, even if they are made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered knitted or crocheted textile fabrics and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics or cellular rubber (note 2(a)(5) and note 5, last paragraph, to Chapter 59).

CHAPTER 62

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 6212).

2. This chapter does not cover:

  1. worn clothing or other worn articles of heading 6309; or

  2. orthopaedic appliances, surgical belts, trusses or the like (heading 9021).

3. For the purposes of headings 6203 and 6204:

  1. 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 same 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.

  2. The term ‘ensemble’ means a set of garments (other than suits and articles of heading 6207 or 6208) 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 tracksuits or ski suits, of heading 6211.

4. Headings 6205 and 6206 do not cover garments with pockets below the waist, with a ribbed waistband or other means of tightening at the bottom of the garment. Heading 6205 does not cover sleeveless garments.

‘Shirts’ and ‘shirts-blouses’ are garments designed to cover the upper part of the body, having long or short sleeves and a full or partial opening starting at the neckline. ‘Blouses’ are loose-fitting garments also designed to cover the upper part of the body but may be sleeveless and with or without an opening at the neckline. ‘Shirts’, ‘shirts-blouses’ and ‘blouses’ may also have a collar.

5. For the purposes of heading 6209:

  1. the expression ‘babies' garments and clothing accessories’ means articles for young children of a body height not exceeding 86 cm;

  2. articles which are prima facie classifiable both in heading 6209 and in other headings of this chapter are to be classified in heading 6209.

6. Garments which are prima facie classifiable both in heading 6210 and in other headings of this chapter, excluding heading 6209, are to be classified in heading 6210.

7. For the purposes of heading 6211, ‘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 of either:

  1. 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

  2. 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, windcheater, 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.

8. 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 6213). Handkerchiefs of which any side exceeds 60 cm are to be classified in heading 6214.

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.

Additional notes

1. For the application of note 3(b) to this chapter, the components of an ensemble must be made up entirely in a single identical fabric, subject to compliance with the other conditions laid down in the said note.

For this purpose, the fabric used can be unbleached, bleached, dyed, of yarns of different colours or printed.

Sets of garments are not regarded as ensembles when their components are made up in different fabrics, even if the difference is due only to their respective colours.

All the components of an ensemble must be presented together for retail sale as a single unit. Individual wrapping or separate labelling of each component of such a single unit does not influence its classification as an ensemble.

2. Headings 6209 and 6216 include gloves, mittens and mitts, impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber, even if they are:

  • made up from textile fabrics (other than knitted or crocheted) impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber of heading 5903 or 5906, or

  • made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered textile fabrics (other than knitted or crocheted) and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with plastics or rubber.

Where textile fabrics (other than knitted or crocheted) serve only as reinforcement, gloves, mittens or mitts impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics or cellular rubber belong in Chapter 39 or 40, even if they are made up from unimpregnated, uncoated or uncovered textile fabrics (other than knitted or crocheted) and subsequently impregnated, coated or covered with cellular plastics or cellular rubber (note 2(a)(5) and note 5, last paragraph, to Chapter 59).

CHAPTER 64

FOOTWEAR, GAITERS AND THE LIKE; PARTS OF SUCH ARTICLES

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. disposable foot or shoe coverings of flimsy material (for example, paper, sheeting of plastics) without applied soles. These products are classified according to their constituent material;

  2. footwear of textile material, without an outer sole glued, sewn or otherwise affixed or applied to the upper (Section XI);

  3. worn footwear of heading 6309;

  4. articles of asbestos (heading 6812);

  5. orthopaedic footwear or other orthopaedic appliances, or parts thereof (heading 9021); or

  6. toy footwear or skating boots with ice or roller skates attached; shin-guards or similar protective sportswear (Chapter 95).

2. For the purposes of heading 6406, the term ‘parts’ does not include pegs, protectors, eyelets, hooks, buckles, ornaments, braid, laces, pompons or other trimmings (which are to be classified in their appropriate headings) or buttons or other goods of heading 9606.

3. For the purposes of this chapter:

  1. the terms ‘rubber’ and ‘plastics’ include woven fabrics or other textile products with an external layer of rubber or plastics being visible to the naked eye; for the purpose of this provision, no account should be taken of any resulting change of colour; and

  2. the term ‘leather’ refers to the goods of headings 4107 and 4112 to 4114.

4. Subject to note 3 to this chapter:

  1. the material of the upper shall be taken to be the constituent material having the greatest external surface area, no account being taken of accessories or reinforcements such as ankle patches, edging, ornamentation, buckles, tabs, eyelet stays or similar attachments;

  2. the constituent material of the outer sole shall be taken to be the material having the greatest surface area in contact with the ground, no account being taken of accessories or reinforcements such as spikes, bars, nails, protectors or similar attachments.

Subheading note

1. For the purposes of subheadings 6402 12, 6402 19, 6403 12, 6403 19 and 6404 11, the expression ‘sports footwear’ applies only to:

  1. footwear which is designed for a sporting activity and has, or has provision for the attachment of, spikes, sprigs, stops, clips, bars or the like;

  2. skating boots, ski-boots and cross-country ski footwear, snowboard boots, wrestling boots, boxing boots and cycling shoes.

Additional notes

1. Within the meaning of note 4(a), ‘reinforcements’ is taken to mean all pieces of material (for example, plastics or leather) attached to the external surface of the upper to give additional strength, whether or not also attached to the sole. After the removal of reinforcements, the visible material must have the characteristics of an upper and not lining, supporting the foot sufficiently to enable the wearer, with the original fastening systems in place, to walk in the footwear.

Account is to be taken of sections covered by accessories or reinforcements when deciding on the composition of the upper.

2. Within the meaning of note 4(b), one or more layers of textile material which do not possess the characteristics usually required for normal use of an outer sole (for example, durability, strength, etc.) are not to be taken into consideration for classification purposes.

CHAPTER 70

GLASS AND GLASSWARE

Notes

1. This chapter does not cover:

  1. goods of heading 3207 (for example, vitrifiable enamels and glazes, glass frit, other glass in the form of powder, granules or flakes);

  2. articles of Chapter 71 (for example, imitation jewellery);

  3. optical fibre cables of heading 8544, electrical insulators (heading 8546) or fittings of insulating material of heading 8547;

  4. front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows, framed, for vehicles of Chapters 86 to 88;

  5. front windscreens (windshields), rear windows and other windows, whether or not framed, incorporating heating devices or other electrical or electronic devices, for vehicles of Chapters 86 to 88;

  6. optical fibres, optically worked optical elements, hypodermic syringes, artificial eyes, thermometers, barometers, hydrometers or other articles of Chapter 90;

  7. luminaires and lighting fittings, illuminated signs, illuminated nameplates or the like, having a permanently fixed light source, or parts thereof of heading 9405;

  8. toys, games, sports requisites, Christmas tree ornaments or other articles of Chapter 95 (excluding glass eyes without mechanisms for dolls or for other articles of Chapter 95); or

  9. buttons, fitted vacuum flasks, scent or similar sprays or other articles of Chapter 96.

2. For the purposes of headings 7003, 7004 and 7005:

  1. glass is not regarded as ‘worked’ by reason of any process it has undergone before annealing;

  2. cutting to shape does not affect the classification of glass in sheets;

  3. the expression ‘absorbent, reflecting or non-reflecting layer’ means a microscopically thin coating of metal or of a chemical compound (for example, metal oxide) which absorbs, for example, infra-red light or improves the reflecting qualities of the glass while still allowing it to retain a degree of transparency or translucency; or which prevents light from being reflected on the surface of the glass.

3. The products referred to in heading 7006 remain classified in that heading, whether or not they have the character of articles.

4. For the purposes of heading 7019, the expression ‘glass wool’ means:

  1. mineral wools with a silica (SiO2) content not less than 60 % by weight;

  2. mineral wools with a silica (SiO2) content less than 60 % but with an alkaline oxide (K2O or Na2O) content exceeding 5 % by weight or a boric oxide (B2O3) content exceeding 2 % by weight.

Mineral wools which do not comply with the above specifications fall in heading 6806.

5. Throughout the nomenclature, the expression ‘glass’ includes fused quartz and other fused silica.

Subheading note

1. For the purposes of subheadings 7013 22, 7013 33, 7013 41 and 7013 91, the expression ‘lead crystal’ means only glass having a minimum lead monoxide (PbO) content by weight of 24 %.

  12. hand sieves, buttons, pens, pencil-holders, pen nibs, monopods, bipods, tripods and similar articles or other articles of Chapter 96 (miscellaneous manufactured articles); or

  13. articles of Chapter 97 (for example, works of art).

2. Throughout the nomenclature, the expression ‘parts of general use’ means:

  1. articles of heading 7307, 7312, 7315, 7317 or 7318 and similar articles of other base metal, other than articles specially designed for use exclusively in implants in medical, surgical, dental or veterinary sciences (heading 9021);

  2. springs and leaves for springs, of base metal, other than clock or watch springs (heading 9114); and

  3. articles of headings 8301, 8302, 8308, 8310 and frames and mirrors, of base metal, of heading 8306.

In Chapters 73 to 76 and 78 to 82 (but not in heading 7315), references to parts of goods do not include references to parts of general use as defined above.

Subject to the preceding paragraph and to note 1 to Chapter 83, the articles of Chapter 82 or 83 are excluded from Chapters 72 to 76 and 78 to 81.

3. Throughout the nomenclature, the expression ‘base metals’ means: iron and steel, copper, nickel, aluminium, lead, zinc, tin, tungsten (wolfram), molybdenum, tantalum, magnesium, cobalt, bismuth, cadmium, titanium, zirconium, antimony, manganese, beryllium, chromium, germanium, vanadium, gallium, hafnium, indium, niobium (columbium), rhenium and thallium.

4. Throughout the nomenclature, the term ‘cermets’ means products containing a microscopic heterogeneous combination of a metallic component and a ceramic component. The term ‘cermets’ includes sintered metal carbides (metal carbides sintered with a metal).

5. Classification of alloys (other than ferro-alloys and master alloys as defined in Chapters 72 and 74):

  1. An alloy of base metals is to be classified as an alloy of the metal which predominates by weight over each of the other metals.

  2. An alloy composed of base metals of this section and of elements not falling within this section is to be treated as an alloy of base metals of this section if the total weight of such metals equals or exceeds the total weight of the other elements present.

  3. In this section, the term ‘alloys’ includes sintered mixtures of metal powders, heterogeneous intimate mixtures obtained by melting (other than cermets) and intermetallic compounds.

6. Unless the context otherwise requires, any reference in the nomenclature to a base metal includes a reference to alloys which, by virtue of note 5 above, are to be classified as alloys of that metal.

7. Classification of composite articles:

Except where the headings otherwise require, articles of base metal (including articles of mixed materials treated as articles of base metal under the general interpretative rules) containing two or more base metals are to be treated as articles of the base metal predominating by weight over each of the other metals.

For this purpose:

  1. Iron and steel, or different kinds of iron or steel, are regarded as one and the same metal.

  2. An alloy is regarded as being entirely composed of that metal as an alloy of which, by virtue of note 5, it is classified.

  3. A cermet of heading 8113 is regarded as a single base metal.

8. In this section, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  1. Waste and scrap

    1. all metal waste and scrap;

    2. metal goods definitely not usable as such because of breakage, cutting-up, wear or other reasons.

  2. Powders

    Products of which 90 % or more by weight passes through a sieve having a mesh aperture of 1 mm.

9. For the purposes of Chapters 74 to 76 and 78 to 81, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  1. 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 of Chapter 74 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 7403. This provision applies mutatis mutandis to the products of Chapter 81.

  2. 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.

  3. 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.

  4. Plates, sheets, strip and foil

    Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products), 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.

    Headings for plates, sheets, strip, and foil 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.

  5. 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.

  4. 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.

  5. 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 7202, 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 note 1(c) to this chapter; 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 note 1(c) to this chapter must each exceed 10 % by weight.

Additional note

1. The following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

CHAPTER 74

COPPER AND ARTICLES THEREOF

Note

1. In this chapter, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  1. 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:

  2. Copper alloys:

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

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

    2. the total content by weight of such other elements exceeds 2,5 %.

  3. 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 manufacture of other alloys or as de-oxidants, de-sulphurising agents or 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 2853.

Subheading note

1. In this chapter, the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them:

  1. 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)).

  2. 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 %.

  3. 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)).

  4. 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.
