Item 3: Product, known as an ‘LCD module’, in the form of an active matrix liquid crystal device with a backlight unit, inverters and printed circuit boards with control electronics for pixel addressing only. The module is based on thin-film transistor (TFT) technology. It has overall dimensions of 75,9 (W) × 44,9 (H) × 4,9 (D) cm, a diagonal screen measurement of 81,6 cm (32 inches) and a resolution of 1 366 × 768 pixels. The module does not incorporate any other electronic components (for exam
Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2(b) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8529, 8529 90 and 8529 90 92. The module cannot be classified under heading 9013 because it comprises a backlight unit, inverters and printed circuit boards with control electronics for pixel addressing only (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 9013 (1)). The module is not classifiable in heading 8473 as a part of a display unit of an automatic data- processing machine, because it is not suitable for use solely or principally with an automatic data-processing machine of heading 8471. The module is not classifiable in heading 8531, because it is not considered to be an electrical visual signalling apparatus of heading 8531 or a part of such an apparatus in view of its characteristics (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 8531). Because of its characteristics (such as dimensions and resolution) the module is classifiable under heading 8529 because it is suitable for use solely or principally with apparatus of heading 8528. Documented CN 2026 code: 8524. Commission 2026 transposition note: 8524 Introduction of new heading 8524 that now covers Flat panel display modules.
