Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 852582 when importing or exporting radiation-hardened or radiation-tolerant television cameras and video camera recorders. These are specialized devices designed for use in environments with high radiation levels, such as space or nuclear facilities. For example, a shipment might include a digital camera used in a satellite.

This code falls under the broader 8525 heading, which covers various types of transmission apparatus for radio and television. Unlike standard cameras, the items classified under 852582 are specifically engineered to withstand radiation, making them suitable for unique applications.

If you're considering HS-6 852582, be aware that it differs from HS-6 852580, which includes regular television cameras and video recorders not designed for radiation exposure. The distinction is crucial for compliance and ensuring correct duties.

When importing or exporting these specialized cameras, it’s essential to provide detailed descriptions on invoices, including specifications about their radiation resistance. This clarity helps customs officials classify your products accurately.
