EU classification regulations for 8471700000

Commission regulations that classified specific goods under this code. They bind customs in every member state for identical goods.

  • 8471 70 98 Oct 26, 2017 · Regulation on EUR-Lex
    An electronic apparatus (so-called ‘Solid State Drive (SSD)’) with dimensions of approximately 100 × 70 × 7 mm, a 2,5 inch form factor and a storage capacity of 128 GB.

    It is a semiconductor based electronic storage device, built on solid state architecture, with flash memory to store non-volatile data and Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM). It has a Serial Advanced Technology Attachment (SATA) interface which permits integration in an automatic data-processing machine and is used as an internal data storage device. (see image) (*1)

    Reasons

    Classification is determined by General Rules 1 and 6 for the interpretation of the Combined Nomenclature, Note 5 (C) to Chapter 84 and by the wording of CN codes 8471 , 8471 70 and 8471 70 98 . Its objective characteristics such as the SATA interface, size and form factor are characteristics of a device of a kind used principally in an automatic data-processing machine, it is directly connectable to the central processing unit, and it is able to accept or deliver data in a form which can be used by the system. Classification under heading 8523 as solid state non-volatile storage device is therefore excluded. Consequently, the device is to be classified under CN code 8471 70 98 as other storage units for automatic data-processing machines.
