Stereoscopic microscopes, other than those provided with a means for photographing the image, fall under HS Code 90111080. This code is used to classify and identify these specific types of microscopes for import and export purposes. In this article, we will explore the product description, duty rates, special tariff preference programs, and the importing and exporting US states associated with this HS code.
Stereoscopic microscopes are optical instruments that provide a three-dimensional view of objects. They are commonly used in scientific research, medical laboratories, education, and various industries. This HS code specifically refers to stereoscopic microscopes that do not have the capability to photograph the observed image.
These microscopes are designed to magnify and provide a clear, detailed view of objects or specimens. They are equipped with two eyepieces, allowing for binocular viewing, and often have adjustable magnification levels to suit different applications.
The bound / MFN (Most Favored Nation) duty rate for HS Code 90111080 is 7.2%. This means that every time a country lowers a trade barrier or opens up a market, it has to do so for the same goods or services from all its trading partners.
Importers or exporters dealing with stereoscopic microscopes classified under this HS code will be subject to the 7.2% duty rate unless they qualify for any special tariff preference programs.
There are several special tariff preference programs associated with HS Code 90111080, providing duty-free treatment for qualifying countries. These programs include:
Importers or exporters from countries participating in these programs may be eligible for duty-free treatment or special rates when dealing with stereoscopic microscopes.
When it comes to importing stereoscopic microscopes classified under HS Code 90111080, the following US states have been identified as importers:
These states have shown a significant demand for stereoscopic microscopes and are actively involved in importing them.
On the other hand, the following US states have been identified as exporters of stereoscopic microscopes classified under HS Code 90111080:
These states have a production or distribution capability for stereoscopic microscopes and contribute to the export of these products.
HS Code 90111080 represents stereoscopic microscopes without the capability to photograph the observed image. Importers and exporters dealing with these microscopes should be aware of the duty rates, special tariff preference programs, and the US states involved in importing and exporting. Understanding these details will facilitate smoother trade transactions and compliance with relevant regulations.
