HS-4 9022: Apparatus based on the use of x-rays or of alpha, beta, gamma or other ionising radiations, whether or not for medical, surgical, dental or veterinary uses, including radiography or radiotherapy apparatus, x-ray tubes and other x-ray generators, high tens

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 9022 when importing or exporting apparatus that utilizes x-rays or ionizing radiation, such as x-ray machines for hospitals or dental clinics. This heading covers a variety of equipment, including radiography and radiotherapy devices.

When deciding between the subheadings, consider the specific use of the apparatus. For example, 902212 is for general radiography or radiotherapy equipment, while 902213 is specifically for dental applications. If the equipment is intended for medical or surgical use but not dental, you would select 902214.

If your equipment uses ionizing radiation but is not for medical, surgical, dental, or veterinary purposes, you should look at 902219. This distinction is crucial for compliance and accurate tariff classification.
