For the purpose of heading 8908, the expression ‘vessels and other floating structures for breaking up’ includes the following articles when presented for breaking up, on condition that they have formed part of their normal equipment: — spare parts (such as propellers), whether or not in a new condition, — movable articles (furniture, kitchen equipment, tableware, etc.) showing clear evidence of use.

The provisions of general rule 2(a) are also applicable, at the request of the declarant and subject to conditions stipulated by the competent authorities, to goods of headings 8608, 8805, 8905 and 8907 imported in split consignments.
Other explanatory notes for the chapter
Additional note 1 The expression ‘vessels, designed as seagoing’ means vessels which, by reason of their construction and equipment, are capable of operating at sea even in bad weather (winds of about force 7 on the Beaufort scale). Such vessels are generally fitted with watertight decks and weatherproof superstructures. The expression ‘hull of an overall length’ means the length of the hull measured between the foremost point of the bow and the aftermost point of the stern, but not including projections whether or not moulded with the hull (for example, rudders, bowsprits, fishing platforms or diving boards). The expression ‘seagoing vessels’ means ships and hovercraft which satisfy the above conditions, whether or not they are actually used mainly in coastal waters, in estuaries or on lakes, etc. It is further to be noted that: 1. vessels of less than 12 m in length which are designed as seagoing are covered by the term ‘fishing boats’ only when they are specifically designed and equipped for professional fishing, even though they may occasionally be used for pleasure purposes; 2. the term ‘lifeboats’ covers vessels placed on seagoing ships for taking off the crew and passengers if the ships are in danger; it also covers lifeboats placed at suitable points along the coast and intended for going to the assistance of ships in distress.
