Last updated: July 2026 dataPrinted circuit assemblies, TV tuners, flat-panel screen assemblies, and other non-antenna parts for broadcast, radar, and television equipment are classified here, with the US schedule drawing fine distinctions based on whether a part is a printed circuit assembly (PCA), a subassembly entered with components, or a standalone part — each carrying different duty treatment under Chapter 85 US notes. Flat-panel screen assemblies for TV receivers and video monitors (8529905500) are a high-value line given the dominance of large-format display supply chains. Mexico is the leading US supplier, reflecting deep North American electronics manufacturing integration, followed by South Korea and China.

Additional US Note 10 to Chapter 85 defines specific conditions under which TV tuners and certain subassemblies qualify for dedicated tariff lines (such as 8529902900 and 8529903900) rather than the general parts provisions. The note typically addresses functional and constructional criteria that distinguish a standalone tuner module from a broader printed circuit assembly. Importers should review the note carefully and confirm with a licensed customs broker whether their specific component meets the note's criteria before selecting a 10-digit line.
The US schedule maintains separate lines for subassemblies entered with components (e.g., 8529903300 and 8529904300) versus those entered as complete subassemblies (e.g., 8529903600 and 8529904600). The duty rates and eligibility conditions can differ, so the manner of entry — whether components accompany the subassembly or it arrives fully built — directly affects classification. This distinction is particularly relevant for color TV receiver chassis and module imports.
