WHEREAS,
the Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines known as Republic Act
No. 1937 has been amended by several Presidential Decrees dating back
to the year 1972; chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
WHEREAS, there exist in the said Code a substantial number of
provisions rendered obsolete by subsequent issuances of amendatory
laws, decrees and executive orders thereby making it imperative to
consolidate, codify and integrate such amendatory laws, decrees and
executive orders to harmonize their provisions for the proper guidance
of the public and efficient administration thereof;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
WHEREAS, there likewise exist in the said Code certain provisions which
are impractical in application, thus, necessitating revision in order
to infuse flexibility, keep pace with the changing needs and demands of
trade and commerce as well as strengthen the punitive force of the law
against smuggling and other forms of customs fraud.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, FERDINAND E. MARCOS, President of the Republic of
the Philippines, by virtue of the powers in me vested by the
Constitution, do hereby order and decree as follows:cralaw:red
Section 1. Codification of all Tariff and Customs
Laws. — All tariff and customs laws embodied in the present Tariff and
Customs Code and various laws, presidential decrees and executive
orders including new amendments thereto made in this Decree, are hereby
consolidated into a single Code to be known as the Tariff and Customs
Code of 1978 which shall form an integral part of this Decree.
Section 2. Effectivity. — The provisions of the
Tariff and Customs Code of 1978 shall take effect immediately without
prejudice, however, to effectivity dates of the various laws, decrees
and executive orders which have so far amended the provisions of the
Tariff and Customs Code of the Philippines: Provided, however, that the
tariff rates indicated in the previous executive orders are now hereby
considered statutory rates, except those which have been reduced to the
zero level, in which case the rates previous to the reduction will be
considered the statutory rates.
DONE in the City of Manila,
this 11th day June, in the year of Our Lord, nineteen hundred and
seventy-eight.

Section 103. General Rules for the Interpretation of
the Harmonized System. —
Classification of goods in the Nomenclature shall be governed by the
following principles:cralaw:red
1. The titles of Sections, Chapters and Sub-Chapters
are provided for ease of reference only; for legal purposes,
classifications shall be determined according to the terms of the
headings and any relative Section or Chapter Notes and, provided such
headings or Notes do not otherwise require, according to the following
provisions.
2. (a) Any reference in a heading to an article shall
be taken to include a reference to that article incomplete or
unfinished, provided that, as presented, the incomplete or unfinished
article has the essential character of the complete or finished
article. It shall also be taken to include a reference to that
article complete or finished (or falling to be classified as complete
or finished by virtue of this Rule), presented unassembled or
disassembled.
(b) Any reference in a heading to a material or
substance shall be taken to include a reference to mixtures or
combinations of that material or substance with other materials or
substances. Any reference to goods of a given material or
substance shall be taken to include a reference to goods consisting
wholly or partly of such material or substance. The
classification of goods consisting or more than one material or
substance shall be according to the principles of Rule 3.
3. When by application of Rule 2 (b) or for any other
reason, goods are, prima facie, classifiable under two or more
headings, classification shall be effected as follows:cralaw:red
(a) The heading which provides the most specific
description shall be preferred to headings providing a more general
description. However, when two or more headings each refer to
part only of the materials or substances contained in mixed or
composite goods or to part only of the items in a set put for retail
sale, those headings are to be regarded as equally specific in relation
to those goods, even if one of them gives a more complete or precise
description of the goods.
(b) Mixtures, composite goods consisting of different
materials or made up of different components, and goods put up in sets
for retail sale, which cannot be classified by reference to 3(a), shall
be classified as if they consisted of the material or component which
gives them their essential character insofar as this criterion is
applicable.
(c) When goods cannot be classified by reference to 3
(a) or 3 (b), they shall be classified under the heading which occurs
last in numerical order among those which equally merit consideration.
4. Goods which cannot be classified in accordance
with the above Rules shall be classified under the heading appropriate
to the goods to which they are most akin.
5. In addition to the foregoing provisions, the
following Rules shall apply in respect to the goods referred to therein:cralaw:red
(a) Camera cases, musical instrument cases, gun
cases, drawing instrument cases, necklace cases and similar containers,
specifically 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. The Rule does not,
however, apply to containers which give the whole its essential
character;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Subject to the provisions of Rule 5(a) above,
packing materials and packing containers presented with the goods
therein shall be classified with the goods if they are of a kind
normally used for packing such goods. However, this provision
does not apply when such packing materials or packing containers are
clearly suitable for repetitive use.
6. For legal purposes, the classification of goods in
the subheadings of a heading shall be determined according to the terms
of those subheadings and any related Subheading Notes and, mutatis
mutandis, to the above Rules, on the understanding that only
subheadings at the same level are comparable. For the purposes of
the Rule the relative Section and Chapter Notes also apply, unless the
context otherwise requires.
Section 104. All Tariff Sections, Chapters, headings
and subheadings and the rates of import duty under Section 104 of
Presidential Decree No. 34 and all subsequent amendment issues under
Executives Orders and Presidential Decrees are hereby adopted and form
part of this Code.
There shall be levied, collected, and paid upon all imported articles
the rates of duty indicated in the Section under this Section except as
otherwise specifically provided for in this Code: provided, that the
maximum rate shall not exceed one hundred per cent ad valorem.
The rates of duty herein provided or subsequently fixed pursuant to
Section four hundred one of this Code shall be subject to periodic
investigation by the Tariff Commission and may be revised by the
President upon recommendation of the National Economic and Development
Authority.
The rates of duty herein provided shall apply to all products whether
imported directly or indirectly of all foreign countries, which do not
discriminate against Philippine export products. An additional
100% across-the-board duty shall be levied on the products of any
foreign country which discriminates against Philippine export products.
The tariff Sections, Chapters, headings and subheadings and the rate of
import duty under Section one hundred four of this Code shall be as
follows:cralaw:red

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 Nos. 29.04 to 29.06, 29.08 to 29.11
and 29.13 to 29.20, any reference to halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated
or nitrosated derivatives includes a reference to compound derivatives,
such as sulphohalogenated, nitrohalogenated, nitrosulphonated or
nitrosulphohalogenated derivatives.
Nitro or nitroso groups are not to be taken as "nitrogen-functions" for
the purpose of heading No. 29.29.
For the purposes of headings Nos. 29.11, 29.12, 29.14, 29.18 and 29.22,
"oxygen-function" is to be restricted to the functions (the
characteristic organic oxygen-containing groups) referred to in
headings Nos. 29.05 to 29.20.
5. (a) The esters of acid-function organic compounds
of sub-Chapters I to VII with organic compounds of these sub-Chapters
are to be classified with that compound which is classified in the
heading which occurs last in numerical order in these sub-Chapters.
(b) Esters of ethyl alcohol or glycerol with
acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII are to be
classified in the same heading as the corresponding acid-function
compounds.
(c) Subject to Note 1 to Section VI and Note 2 to
Chapter 28:cralaw:red
(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 No. 29.42, are to be classified in the
heading appropriate to the organic compound; and
(2) Salts formed between organic compounds of
sub-Chapters I to X or heading No. 29.42 are to be classified in the
heading appropriate to the base or to the acid (including phenol- or
enol-function compounds) from which they are formed, whichever occurs
last in numerical order in the Chapter.
(d) Metal alcoholates are to be classified in the
same heading as the corresponding alcohols except in the case of
ethanol and glycerol (heading No. 29.05).
(e) Halides of carboxylic acids are to be classified
in the same heading as the corresponding acids.
6. The compounds of headings Nos. 29.30 and 29.31 are
organic compounds the molecules of which contain, in addition to atoms
of hydrogen, oxygen or nitrogen, atoms of other non-metals or of metals
(such as sulphur, arsenic, mercury or lead) directly linked to carbon
atoms.
Heading No. 29.30 (organo-sulphur compounds) and heading No. 29.31
(other organo-inorganic compounds) do not include sulphonated or
halogenated derivatives (including compound derivatives) which, apart
from hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen, only have directly linked to carbon
the atoms of sulphur or of a halogen which give them their nature of
sulphonated or halogenated derivatives (or compound derivatives).
7. Headings Nos. 29.32, 29.33 and 29.34 do not
include epoxides with a three-membered ring, ketone peroxides, cyclic
polymers of aldehydes or of thioaldehydes, anhydrides of polybasic
carboxylic acids, cyclic esters of polyhydric alcohols or phenols with
polybasic acids and imides of polybasic acids. chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
These provisions apply only when the ring-position hereto-atoms are
those resulting solely from the cyclising function or functions here
listed.
Subheading Note:
1. Within any one heading of this Chapter,
derivatives of a chemical compound (or group of chemical compounds) are
to be classified in the same sub-heading 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.

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:cralaw:red
(a) having regard to the manner in which they are put
up, clearly identifiable as being intended to be used together without
first being repacked;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) presented together; and
(c) identifiable, whether by their nature or by the
relative proportions in which they are present, as being complementary
one to another.
2. Except for the goods of heading No. 39.18 or
39.19, plastics, rubber, and articles thereof, printed with motifs,
characters or pictorial representations, which are not merely
incidental to the primary use of the goods, fall in Chapter 49.
CHAPTER XXXIX
PLASTICS AND ARTICLES THEREOF
Notes:
1. Throughout the Nomenclature the expression
"plastics" means those materials of headings Nos. 39.01 to 39.14 which
are or have been capable, either at the moment of polymerization 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
vulcanized fibre. The expression, however, does not apply to materials
regarded as textile materials of Section XI.
2. This Chapter does not cover:cralaw:red
(a) Waxes of heading No. 27.12 or 34.04;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Separate chemically defined organic compounds
(Chapter 29);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(c) Heparin or its salts (heading No. 30.01);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(d) Stamping foils of heading No. 32.12;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(e) Organic surface-active agents or preparations of
heading No. 34.02;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(f) Run gums or ester gums (heading No. 38.06);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(g) Synthetic rubber, as defined for the purposes of
Chapter 40, or articles thereof;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(h) Saddlery or harness (heading No. 42.01) or
trunks, suitcases, handbags or other containers of heading No. 42.02;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(ij) Plaits, wickerwork or other articles of Chapter
46;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(k) Wall coverings of heading No. 48.14;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(l) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile
articles);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(m) Articles of Section XII (for example, footwear,
headgear, umbrellas, sun umbrellas, walking-sticks, whips, riding-crops
or parts thereof);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(n) Imitation jewellery of heading No. 71.17;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(o) Articles of Section XVI (machines and mechanical
or electrical appliances);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(p) Parts ofrcraft or vehicles of Section XVII;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(q) Articles of Chapter 90 (for example, optical
elements, spectacle frames, drawing instruments);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(r) Articles of Chapter 91 (for example, clock or
watch cases);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(s) Articles of Chapter 92 (for example, musical
instruments or parts thereof);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(t) Articles of Chapter 94 (for example, furniture,
lamps and lighting fittings, illuminated signs, prefabricated
buildings);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(u) Articles of Chapter 95 (for example, toys, games,
sports requisites); or
(v) Articles of Chapter 96 (for example, brushes,
buttons, slide fasteners, combs, mouthpieces or stems for smoking
pipes, cigarette-holders or the like, parts of vacuum flasks or the
like, pens, propelling pencils).
3. Headings Nos. 39.01 to 39.11 apply only to goods
of a kind produced by chemical synthesis, falling in the following
categories:cralaw:red
(a) Liquid synthetic polyolefins of which less than
60% by volume distils at 300ºC, after conversion to 1,013
millibars when a reduced-pressure distillation method is used (headings
Nos. 39.01 and 39.02);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Resins, not highly polymerised, of the
coumarone-indene type (heading No. 39.11);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(c) Other synthetic polymers with an average of at
least 5 monomer units;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(d) Silicones (heading No. 39.10);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(e) Resols (heading No. 39.09) and other prepolymers.
4. For the purposes of this Chapter, except
where the context otherwise requires, copolymers (including
co-polycondensates, co-polyaddition products, block copolymers and
graft coplymers) and polymer blends are to be classified in the heading
covering polymers of that comonomer which predominates by weight over
every other single comonomer, comonomers whose polymers fall in the
same heading being regarded as constituting a single comonomer.
If no single comonomer predominates, coplymers 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.
The expression "copolymers" covers all polymers in which no single
monomer contributes 95% or more by weight to the total polymer content.
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 Nos. 39.01 to 39.14, the expression
"primary forms" applies only to the following forms:cralaw:red
(a) Liquids and pastes, including dispersions
(emulsions and suspensions) and solutions;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, powders
(including moulding powders), granules, flakes and similar bulk forms.
7. Heading No. 39.15 does not apply to waste, parings
and scrap of a single thermoplastic material, transformed into primary
forms (headings Nos. 39.01 to 39.14).
8. For the purposes of heading No. 39.17, the
expression "tubes, pipes and hoses" means hollow products, whether
semi-manufactures or finished products, of a kind generally used for
conveying, conducting or distributing gases or liquids (for example,
ribbed garden hose, perforated tubes). This expression also includes
sausage casings and other lay-flat tubing. However, except for the
last-mentioned, those having an internal cross-section other than
round, oval, rectangular (in which the length does not exceed 1.5 times
the width) or in the shape of a regular polygon are not to be regarded
as tubes, pipes and hoses but as profile shapes.
9. For the purposes of heading No. 39.18, the
expression "wall or ceiling coverings of plastics" applies to products
in rolls, of a width not less than 45 cm, suitable for wall or ceiling
decoration, consisting of plastics fixed permanently on a backing of
any material other than paper, the plastic layer (on the face side)
being grained, embossed, coloured, design-printed or otherwise
decorated).
10. In headings Nos. 39.20 and 39.21, the expression
"plates, sheets, film, foil and strip" applies only to plates, sheets,
film, foil and strip (other than those of Chapter 54) and to blocks of
regular geometric shape, whether or not printed or otherwise
surface-worked, uncut or cut into rectangles (including squares) but
not further worked (even if when so cut, they become articles ready for
use).
11. Heading No. 39.25 applies only to the following
articles, not being products covered by any of the earlier headings of
sub-Chapter II:cralaw:red
(a) Reservoirs, tanks (including septic tanks), vats
and similar containers, of a capacity exceeding 300 1;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Structural elements used, for example, in floors,
walls or partitions, ceilings or roofs;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(c) Gutters and fittings therefor;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(d) Doors, windows and their frames and thresholds
for doors;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(e) Balconies, balustrades, fencing, gate and similar
barriers;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(f) Shutters, blinds (including Venetian blinds) and
similar articles and parts and fittings thereof;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(g) Large-scale shelving for assembly and permanent
installation, for example, in shops, workshops, warehouses;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(h) Ornamental architectural features, for example,
flutings, cupolas, devocotes; and
(i) 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 Note:
1. Within any one heading of this Chapter, copolymers
(including co-polycondesates, co-polyaddition products, block
copolymers and graft copolymers) are to be classified in the same
subheading as homopolymers of the predominant comonomer and chemically
modified polymers are not more specifically covered by any other
subheading and that there is no residual subheading named "Other" in
the series of subheadings concerned. Polymer blends are to be
classified in the same subheading as copolymers (or homopolymers, as
the case may be) of the same monomers in the same proportions.

CHAPTER XL
RUBBER AND ARTICLES THEREOF
Notes:
1. Except where the context otherwise requires,
throughout the Nomenclature the expression "rubber" means the following
products, whether or not vulcanized or hard: natural rubber, balata,
gutta-percha, guayule, chicle and similar natural gums, synthetic
rubber, factice derived from oils, and such substances reclaimed.
2. This Chapter does not cover:cralaw:red
(a) Goods of Section XI (textiles and textile
articles);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Footwear or parts thereof of Chapter 64;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(c) Headgear or parts thereof (including bathing
caps) of Chapter 65;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(d) Mechanical or electrical appliances or parts
thereof of Section XVI (including electrical goods of all kinds), of
hard rubber;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(e) Articles of Chapter 90. 92, 94 or 96; or
(f) Articles of Chapter 95 (other than sports gloves
and articles of heading Nos. 40.11 to 40.13).
3. In Heading Nos. 40.01 to 40.03 and 40.05,
the expression "primary forms" applies only to the following forms:cralaw:red
(a) Liquids and pastes (including latex, whether or
not pre-vulcanized, and other dispersions and solutions);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Blocks of irregular shape, lumps, bales, powders,
granules, crumbs and similar bulk forms.
4. In Note 1 to this Chapter and in Heading No.
40.02, the expression "synthetic rubber" applies to:cralaw:red
(a) Unsaturated synthetic substances which can be
irreversibly transformed by a vulcanization with sulphur into
non-thermoplastic substances which, at a temperature between 18ºC
and 29ºC, 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 half times their original length. For the purposes
of this test, substances necessary for the cross-linking, such as
vulcanizing activators or accelerators, may be added; the presence of
substances as provided for by Note 5 (b) (ii) and (iii) is also
permitted. However, the presence of any substances not necessary for
the cross-linking, such as extenders, plasticisers and fillers, is not
permitted;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Thioplasts (TM); and
(c) Natural rubber modified by grafting or mixing
with plastics, depolymerised natural rubber, mixtures of unsaturated
synthetic substances with saturated synthetic high polymers provided
that all the above-mentioned products comply with the requirements
concerning vulcanization, elongation and recovery in (a) above.
5. (a) Heading Nos. 40.01 and 40.02 do not
apply to any rubber or mixture of rubbers which has been compounded,
before or after coagulation, with:cralaw:red
(i) vulcanizing agents, accelerators, retarders or
activators (other than those added for the preparation of
pre-vulcanized rubber latex);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(ii) pigments or other colouring matter, other than
those added solely for the purpose of identification:cralaw:red
(iii) plasticisers or extenders (except mineral oil
in the case of oil-extended rubber), fillers, reinforcing agents,
organic solvents or any other substances, except those permitted under
(b);chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) The presence of the following substances in any
rubber mixture of rubbers shall not affect its classification in
heading Nos. 40.01 or 40.02, as the case may be, provided that such
rubber or mixture of rubbers retains its essential character as a raw
material:cralaw:red
(i) emulsifiers or anti-tack agents:cralaw:red
(ii) small amounts of breakdown products of
emulsifiers;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(iii) 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 No. 40.04, the
expression "waste, parings and scrap" means rubber waste, parings and
scrap from the manufacture or working of rubber and rubber goods
definitely not usable as such because of cutting-up wear or other
reasons.
7. Thread wholly of vulcanized rubber, of which any
cross-sectional dimension exceeds 5 mm, is to be classified as strip,
rods or profile shapes, of Heading No. 40.08.
8. Heading No. 40.10 includes conveyor or
transmission belts or belting of textile fabric impregnated, coated,
covered or laminated with rubber or made from textile yarn or cord
impregnated, coated, covered or sheathed with rubber.
9. In Heading Nos. 40.01, 40.02, 40.03, 40.05
and 40.08, the expressions "plates," sheets" and strip apply only to
plates, sheets and strip and to blocks of regular geometric shape,
uncut or simply cut to rectangular (including Square) shape, whether or
not having the character of articles and whether or not printed or
otherwise surface-worked, but not otherwise cut to shape or further
worked.
In Heading No. 40.08 the expression "rods" and "profile shapes" apply
only to such products, whether or not cut to length or surface-worked
but not otherwise worked.

of the warp passes alternately over and under successive yarns of the
weft.
2. (A) Products of Chapter 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 consisting of

CHAPTER LIV
MAN-MADE FILAMENTS
Notes:
1. Throughout the Nomenclature, the term "man-made
fibres" means staple fibres and filaments of organic polymers produced
by manufacturing processes, either:cralaw:red
(a) By polymerisation of organic monomers, such as
polyamides, polyesters, polyurethanes or polyvinyl derivatives; or
(b) By chemical transformation of natural organic
polymers (for example, cellulose, casein, proteins or algae), such as

2. For the classification of ferro-alloys in the
subheadings of heading No. 72.02 the following rule should be observed:cralaw:red
A ferro-alloy is considered as binary and classified under the relevant
subheading (if it exists) if only one of the alloy elements exceeds the
minimum percentage laid down in Chapter Note 1(c); by analogy, it is
considered respectively as ternary or quaternary if two or three alloy
elements exceed the minimum percentage.
For the application of this rule unspecified "other elements" referred
to in Chapter Note 1(c) must each exceed 10% by weight.

CHAPTER LXXIII
ARTICLES OF IRON OR STEEL
Notes:
1. In this Chapter the expression "cast iron" applies
to products obtained by casting in which iron predominates by weight
over each of the other elements and which do not comply with the
chemical composition of steel as defined in Note 1 (d) to Chapter 72.
2. In this Chapter the word "wire" means hot or
cold-formed products of any cross-sectional shape, of which no
cross-sectional dimension exceeds 16 mm.

CHAPTER LXXIV
COPPER AND ARTICLES THEREOF
Note:
1. In this Chapter the following expressions have the
meanings hereby assigned to them:cralaw:red
(a) Refined Copper
Metal containing at least 99.85% by weight of copper; or
Metal containing at least 97.5% by weight of copper, provided that the
content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit
specified in the following table:cralaw:red
TABLE - Other elements
Element Limiting content % by
weight
Ag Silver 0.25%
As Arsenic 0.5
Cadmium 1.3
Cr Chromium 1.4
Mg Magnesium 0.8
Pb Lead 1.5
S Sulphur 0.7
Sn Tin 0.8
Te Tellurium 0.8
Zn Zinc 1
Zr Zirconium 0.3
Other elements*, each 0.3
* Other elements are, for example, Al, Be, Co, Fe,
Mn, Ni, Si.
(b) Copper alloys
Metallic substances other than unrefined copper in which copper
predominates by weight over each of the other elements, provided that:cralaw:red
(i) the content by weight of at least one of the
other elements shall be greater than the limit specified in the
foregoing table; or
(ii) the total content by weight of such other
elements exceed 2.5%.
(c) Master alloys
Alloys containing with other elements more than 10% by weight of
copper, not usefully malleable and commonly used as an additive in the
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 (phospor copper) containing more than 15% by weight of
phosphorous falls in heading 28.48.
(d) Bars and rods
Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a
uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of
circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles
or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified
rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel.) Products, with a
rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section
may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of
such products which have a rectangular (including "modified
rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The
expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and
dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production
(otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they
have not thereby assumed character of articles or products of other
headings.
Wire-bars and billets with their ends tapered or otherwise worked
simply to facilitate their entry into machines for converting them
into, for example, drawing stock (wire-rod) or tubes, are however to be
taken to be unwrought copper of heading No. 74.03.
(e) Profiles
Rolled, extruded, drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of a
uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform to
any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip,
foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered
products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after
production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided
that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or
products of other headings.
(f) Wire
Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in cils, 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
corner rounded along their whole length. The thickness of such products
which have a rectangular (including "modified rectangular")
cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.
In the case of heading. No. 74.14, however, the term "wire" applies
only to products, whether or not in coils, of any cross-sectional
shape, of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 6 mm.
(g) Plates, sheets, strip and foil
Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading
No. 74.03), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square)
cross-section with or without rounded corners (including "modified
rectangles" of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform
thickness, which are:cralaw:red
— of a 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 Nos. 74.09 and 74.10 apply, inter alia, to plates, sheets,
strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers,
tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been
perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not
hereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.
(h) Tubes and pipes
Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with
only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of
circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles
or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness.
Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular
or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners
rounded along their whole length, are also to be taken to be tubes and
pipes provided the inner and outer cross-section are concentric and
have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the foregoing
cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded, drilled,
waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars or rings.
Subheading Note:
1. In this Chapter the following expressions have the
meanings hereby assigned to them:cralaw:red
(a) Copper-zinc base alloys (brasses)
Alloys of copper and zinc, with or without other elements. When other
elements are present:cralaw:red
zinc predominates by weight over each of such other elements:cralaw:red
— any nickel content by weight is less than 5% (see
copper-nickel-zinc alloys (nickel silvers)); and
— any tin content by weight is less than 3% (see
copper-tin alloys (bronzes)).
(b) Copper-tin base alloys (bronzes)
Alloys of copper and tin, with or without other elements. When other
elements are present, tin predominates by weight over each of such
other elements, except that when the tin content is 3% or more the zinc
content by weight may exceed that of tin but must be less than 10%.
(c) Copper -nickel-zinc base alloys (nickel silvers)
Alloys of copper, nickel and zinc, with or without other elements. The
nickel content is 5% or more by weight (see copper-zinc alloys
(brasses)).
(d) Copper-nickel base alloys
Alloys of copper and nickel, with or without other elements but in any
case containing by weight not more than 1% of zinc. When other elements
are present, nickel predominates by weight over each of such other
elements.

ALUMINIUM AND ARTICLES THEREOF
Note:
1. In this Chapter following expressions have the
meanings hereby assigned to them:cralaw:red
(a) Bars and rods
Rolled, extruded, drawn or forged products, not in coils, which have a
uniform solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of
circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles
or regular convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified
rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a
rectangular (including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section
may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of
such products which have a rectangular (including "modified
rectangular") cross- section exceeds one-tenth of the width. The
expression also covers cast or sintered products, of the same forms and
dimensions, which have been subsequently worked after production
(otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they
have not thereby assumed the character of articles or products of other
headings.
(b) Profiles
Rolled, extruded or drawn, forged or formed products, coiled or not, of
a uniform cross-section along their whole length, which do not conform
to any of the definitions of bars, rods, wire, plates, sheets, strip,
foil, tubes or pipes. The expression also covers cast or sintered
products, of the same forms, which have been subsequently worked after
production (otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided
that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or
products of other headings.
(c) Wire
Rolled, extruded or drawn products, in coils, which have a uniform
solid cross-section along their whole length in the shape of circles,
ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles or regular
convex polygons (including "flattened circles" and "modified
rectangles", of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel). Products with a
rectangular including square), triangular or polygonal cross-section
may have corners rounded along their whole length. The thickness of
such products which have a rectangular (including "modified
rectangular") cross-section exceeds one-tenth of the width.
(d) Plates, sheets, strip and foil
Flat-surfaced products (other than the unwrought products of heading
No. 76.01), coiled or not, of solid rectangular (other than square)
cross- section with or without rounded corners (including "modified
rectangles" of which two opposite sides are convex arcs, the other two
sides being straight, of equal length and parallel) of a uniform
thickness, which are:cralaw:red
— of a 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
of products of other headings.
Headings Nos. 76.06 and 76.07 apply, inter alia, to plates, sheets,
strip and foil with patterns (for example, grooves, ribs, chequers,
tears, buttons, lozenges) and to such products which have been
perforated, corrugated, polished or coated, provided that they do not
thereby assume the character of articles or products of other headings.
(e) Tubes and pipes
Hollow products, coiled or not, which have a uniform cross-section with
only one enclosed void along their whole length in the shape of
circles, ovals, rectangles (including squares), equilateral triangles
or regular convex polygons, and which have a uniform wall thickness.
Products with a rectangular (including square), equilateral triangular
or regular convex polygonal cross-section, which may have corners
rounded along their whole length, are also to be considered as tubes
and pipes provided the inner and outer cross-sections are concentric
and have the same form and orientation. Tubes and pipes of the
foregoing cross-sections may be polished, coated, bent, threaded,
drilled, waisted, expanded, cone-shaped or fitted with flanges, collars
or rings.
Subheading Note:
1. In this Chapter the following expressions have the
meanings hereby assigned to them:cralaw:red
(a) Aluminium, not alloyed
Metal containing by weight at least 99% of aluminium, provided that the
content by weight of any other element does not exceed the limit
specified in the following table:cralaw:red

described in heading No. 85.11, 85.12, 85.40, 85.41 or 85.42.
However, metal tank mercury are rectifiers remain classified in heading
No. 85.04.
3. Heading No. 85.09 covers only the following
electro-mechanical machines of the kind commonly used for domestic
purposes:cralaw:red
(a) Vacuum cleaners, floor polishers, food grinders
and mixers, and fruit or vegetable juice extractors, of any weight;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Other machines provided the weight of such
machines does not exceed 20 kg.
The heading does not, however, apply to fans or ventilating or
recycling hoods incorporating a fan, whether or not fitted with filters
(heading No. 84.14), centrifugal clothes-dryer (heading No. 84.21),
dish washing machines (heading No. 84.22), household washing machines
(heading No. 84.50), roller or other ironing machines (heading No.
84-20 or 84.51), sewing machines (heading No. 84.52), electric scissors
(heading No. 85.08) or to electro-thermic appliances (heading No.
85.16).
4. For the purposes of heading No. 85.34 "printed
circuits" are circuits obtained by forming on an insulating base, by
any printing process (for example, embossing, plating-up, etching) or
by the "film circuit" techniques, conductor elements, contacts or other
printed components (for example, inductances, resistors, capacitors)
alone or interconnected according to a pre-established pattern, other
than elements which can produce, rectify, modulate or amplify an
electrical signal (for example, semiconductor elements).
The term "printed circuits" does not cover circuits combined with
elements other than those obtained during the printing process. Printed
circuits may, however, by fitted with non-printed connecting elements.
Thin-or thick film circuits comprising passive and active elements
obtained during the same technological process are to be classified in
heading No. 85.42.
5. For the purposes of headings Nos. 85.41 and 85.42:cralaw:red
(A) "Diodes, transistors and similar semiconductor
devices" are semiconductors devices the operation of which depends on
variations in resistivity on the application of an electric field;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(B) "Electronic integrated circuits and
microassemblies" are:cralaw:red
(a) Monolithic integrated circuits in which the
circuit elements (diodes, transistors, resistors, capacitors,
interconnections, etc.) are created in the mass (essentially) and on
the surface of a semiconductor material (doped silicon, for example)
and are inseparably associated;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(b) Hybrid integrated circuits in which passive
elements (resistors, capacitors, interconnections, etc.), obtained by
thin- or thick-film technology, and active elements (diodes,
transistors, monolithic integrated circuits, etc.), obtained by
semiconductor technology, are combined to all intents and purposes
indivisibly, on a single insulating substrate (glass, ceramic, etc.).
These circuits may also include discrete components;chanroblesvirtualawlibrary
(c) Microassemblies of the moulded module,
micromodule or similar types, consisting of discrete, active or both
active and passive components which are combined and interconnected.
For the classification of the articles defined in this Note, headings
Nos. 85.41 and 85.42 shall take precedence over any other heading in
the Nomenclature which might cover them by reference to, in particular,
their function.
6. Records, tapes and other media of heading No.
85.23 or 85.24 remain classified in those headings, whether or not they
are presented with the apparatus for which they are intended.
