ANNEX Description of the goods Classification (CN code) Reasons (1) (2) (3) 1. A graphic and alpha-numeric display based on the monochrome passive matrix liquid crystal display technology. The display consists of a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between two sheets or plates of glass with a number of dots (presented in 64 lines and 240 columns) and an electronic interface board of C-MOS technology. It can be incorporated with other products. It is unable to display video images. 8531 20 95 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature and by the wording of CN codes 8531 , 8531 20 and 8531 20 95 . The display has an electronic interface board. Therefore it cannot be classified as a liquid crystal device of heading 9013 (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 9013 (1)). The display does not incorporate electronics to reproduce video signals. Therefore it cannot be classified as a video monitor of heading 8528 . The display is an indicator panel of heading 8531 as it is only capable of displaying graphics and alpha-numeric characters (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 8531 (D)). 2. A product, known as an ‘LCD module (touch screen type)’, in the form of an active matrix liquid crystal device with a backlight unit, inverters and printed circuit boards with control electronics for pixel addressing only. The liquid crystal device consists of a liquid crystal layer sandwiched between two sheets of glass. The outer layer of the glass cells is coated with a thin metallic electrically conductive and resistive layer. The module is based on thin-film transistor (TFT) technology. It has overall dimensions of 34,5 (W) × 35,3 (H) × 16,5 (D) cm and a diagonal screen measurement of 38,1 cm (15 inches). The module does not incorporate any other electronic components (for example, a power supply, a video converter, a scaler, a tuner, etc.), or interfaces for connection to other apparatus. 8548 90 90 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2(c) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8548 , 8548 90 and 8548 90 90 . The module is a part which is not suitable for use solely or principally with a particular kind of machine of Section XVI. Therefore it is classified under heading 8548 by virtue of Note 2(c) to Section XVI. 3. A product, known as an ‘LCD module’, in the form of an active matrix liquid crystal device with a backlight unit, inverters and printed circuit boards with control electronics for pixel addressing only. The module is based on thin-film transistor (TFT) technology. It has overall dimensions of 75,9 (W) × 44,9 (H) × 4,9 (D) cm, a diagonal screen measurement of 81,6 cm (32 inches) and a resolution of 1 366  × 768 pixels. The module does not incorporate any other electronic components (for example, a power supply, a video converter, a scaler, a tuner, etc.) or interfaces for connection to other apparatus. 8529 90 81 Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 2(b) to Section XVI and by the wording of CN codes 8529 , 8529 90 and 8529 90 81 . The module cannot be classified under heading 9013 because it comprises a backlight unit, inverters and printed circuit boards with control electronics for pixel addressing only (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 9013 (1)). The module is not classifiable in heading 8473 as a part of a display unit of an automatic data-processing machine, because it is not suitable for use solely or principally with an automatic data-processing machine of heading 8471 . The module is not classifiable in heading 8531 , because it is not considered to be an electrical visual signalling apparatus of heading 8531 or a part of such an apparatus in view of its characteristics (see also HS Explanatory Notes to heading 8531 ). Because of its characteristics (such as dimensions and resolution) the module is classifiable under heading 8529 because it is suitable for use solely or principally with apparatus of heading 8528 .
