What is “parts of general use” under HS code.

2020-10-12 by Taichi Kawazoe

What are the Definitions of “parts of general use”?
According to Explanatory Note Section XV note 2, “parts of general use” defined as below.

2.Throughout the Nomenclature, the expression “parts of general use” means:

(a) Articles of heading 73.07,73.12,73.15,73.17 or 73.18 and similar articles of other
base metals;

(b) Springs and leaves for springs、of base metal、other than clock or watch springs(heading 91.14); and

(c) Articles of headings 83.01、83.02、83.08、83.10 and frames and mirrors、of base metal、of heading 83.06。

In Chapters 73 to 76 and 78 to 82 (but not in heading 73.15) 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.

 

In this definition, many HS codes are scattered throughout the definition.
Hence still unclear what “parts of general use” mean.

Below are an image list of “parts of general use” for each HS code defined in Explanatory Note Section XV note 2.
