Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 902213 when importing or exporting dental x-ray apparatus designed for radiography or radiotherapy. This includes equipment specifically made for dental applications, such as x-ray machines used in dental offices for diagnostics.
This code is distinct from HS-6 902212, which covers general x-ray apparatus not specifically for dental use. If your equipment is intended for medical or veterinary applications outside of dentistry, you would need to consider a different classification.
The HS-6 902213 line includes devices that utilize x-rays for imaging teeth and jaw structures. These can range from handheld x-ray units to larger stationary machines found in dental clinics.
When classifying your products, ensure they are explicitly for dental use, as this code excludes computed tomography (CT) apparatus, which falls under a different classification.
