PRELIMINARY PROVISIONS

1 . The Nimexe headings correspond either to headings of the nomenclature for the classi­ fication of goods in customs tariffs ( Customs Cooperation Council Nomenclature or CCCN) ( x ) or subheadings of the Common Customs Tariff nomenclature ( CCT ), in so far as these have not been grouped together or replaced by statistical subdivisions , or to statistical subdivisions of headings of the CCCN or of subheadings of the nomenclature of the CCT . In addition , certain items which do not so correspond have been introduced for specific purposes (for example , goods carried by post , goods declared as ships ' stores, etc .). The application of some of the Nimexe headings which correspond to statistical subdivisions or have been introduced for specific purposes is optional .

2 . Each Nimexe heading comprises a code number , a text and , where appropriate , a supple­ mentary unit . However , the optional Nimexe headings have no code numbers .

3 . The code is made up of six digits ; of these , the first four are those of the CCCN headings (for some of these, such as headings 27.05 bis and 73.15 , the numbering has had to be modified for technical reasons ) and the last two identify the Nimexe items .

4 . Nimexe incorporates alphanumeric references to the nomenclature of the CCT .

5 . Each Nimexe item is accompanied by the 5-digit code number of the relevant item in the CST—i.e. the Statistical and Tariff Classification for international Trade , which is the version of the Standard International Trade Classification , Revised , used in the Community .

6 . The interpretation of Nimexe , to the level of the CCT subheadings , is governed by General Rules A and C of the CCT . By analogy , these rules also apply to the statistical subdivisions .

7 . Amendments to Nimexe enter into force only on 1 January of each year .

Note

Headings in this Chapter, except heading No 10.06 , are to be taken not to apply to grains which have been ground to remove the husk or pericarp or otherwise worked . Heading No 10.06 is to be taken to apply to unworked rice and also rice , husked , glazed , polished or broken , but not otherwise worked .

Additional Notes

1 . The term "durum wheat ", as used in subheading 10.01 B , shall be taken to mean wheat of the " triticum durum " species and the hybrids derived from the interspecific crossing of " triticum durum " with the same number of chromo­ somes as that species . Durum wheat thus defined must be of a colour ranging from amber-yellow to brown and show a translucent horn-like vitreous fracture .

2 . The following terms shall have the meanings hereunder assigned to them : (a ) " Round grain rice " ( 10.06 A I a ), A II a ), B I a ) and B II a )): rice, the grains of which are of a length not exceeding 5-2 mm and of a length /width ratio of less than 2 ; (b ) " Long grain rice " (10.06 A I b ), A II b ), Bib ) and B II b )): rice, the grains of which are of a length exceeding 5'2 mm ; (c ) " Paddy rice" ( 10.06 A I ): rice which has retained its husk after threshing ; (d ) " Husked rice " ( 10.06 A II ): paddy rice from which only the husk has been removed . Examples of rice falling within this definition are those with the commercial descriptions "brown rice " , " cargo rice " , " loonzain " and " riso sbramato " ; (e ) " Semi-milled rice " ( 10.06 B I): paddy rice from which the husk, part of the germ , and the whole or part of the outer layers of the pericarp , but not the inner layers , have been removed ; (f ) " Wholly milled rice " (10.06 B II ): rice from which the husk , the whole of the outer and inner layers of the pericarp , the whole of the germ in the case of long or semi-long grain rice, and at least part thereof in the case of round grain rice , have been removed , but in which longitudinal white striations may remain on not more than 10% of the grains ; (g ) " Broken rice " ( 10.06 C): grain fragments the length of which does not exceed three quarters of the average length of the whole grain .

3 . Levies applicable to mixtures of cereals : A. The levy applicable to mixtures composed of two of the cereals falling within headings Nos 10.01 to 10.05 and 10.07 shall be that applicable : (a ) to the component cereal predominating by weight, when that cereal represents at least 90% of the weight of the mixture ; (b ) to the component cereal liable to the higher levy, when neither of the two component cereals represent at least 90% of the weight of the mixture . B. Where a mixture is composed of more than two of the cereals falling within headings Nos 10.01 to 10.05 and 10.07, and where several cereals each represent more than 10% of the weight of the mixture, the levy applicable to the mixture shall be the highest of the levies applicable to such cereals , even when the amount of the levy is the same for two or more cereals . Where a single cereal represents more than 10% of the weight of the mixture, the levy to be applied shall be that applicable to such cereal. C. The levy applicable to mixtures composed of the cereals falling within headings Nos 10.01 to 10.05 and 10.07 and not governed by the above rules shall be the higher or highest of the levies applicable to the cereals composing the mixture concerned, even when the amount of the levy is the same for two or more of the cereals . D. The levy applicable to mixtures composed of one or more of the cereals falling within headings Nos 10.01 to 10.05 and 10.07 and of one or more of the products falling within heading No 10.06 shall be that applicable to the component cereal or product liable to the higher or highest levy .

Additional Notes

1 . For the purposes of beading No 15.07 :

A. Fixed vegetable oils , fluid or solid, obtained by pressure, shall be considered as " crude " if they have undergone no other processing than : — decantation within the normal time limits ; — centrifugation or filtration , provided that, in order to separate the oils from their solid constituents , only mechanical force , such as gravity or pressure of centrifugal force , has been employed (excluding any absorption filtering process or any other physical or chemical process ) ;

B. Fixed vegetable oils , fluid or solid, obtained by extraction shall continue to be considered as " crude " when they cannot be distinguished, by their colour, odour or taste, nor by recognised special analytical properties, from vegetable oils and fats obtained by pressure ;

C. The expression " crude oils " shall be taken to extend to de-gummed soya bean oil and to cotton seed oil from which the gossypol has been removed .

2 . A. For the purposes of subheading 15.07 A , "olive oil" means oil derived solely from the treatment of olives , exclud­ ing re-esterified olive oil and mixtures of olive oil with other oils ;

B. Subheading 15.07 Ala ), covers olive oil obtained by refining virgin olive oil, whether or not blended with virgin olive oil, and having the following characteristics :

(a ) a free fatty acid content, expressed as oleic acid, not exceeding 3% ; (b ) a K270 extinction coefficient (absorption under a thickness of 1 cm of a solution of 1 g of oil per 100 ml in iso-octane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane ) at a wavelength of 270 nm ), higher than 0*25 but not higher than 1 ' 10 and, after treatment of the sample of oil with activated alumina , higher than O'll ; ( c ) an extinction coefficient variation , in the 270 range , higher than 0'01 but not higher than 0'16 .

13 . 12 . 76 Official Journal of the European Communities 67

15 .01

This variation is defined by : A K — Km 0*5 (Km —i ~4~ Km+i)i where Km is the extinction coefficient at the wavelength of the maximum of the absorption curve in the 270 nm range and Km ~4 and Km +4 are the extinction coefficients at wavelengths 4 nm lower and higher, respectively, than that of Km ; (d ) no positive reaction of oils from olive residues ; C. Subheading 15.07 Alb ) covers olive oil having : (a ) the characteristics mentioned in paragraphs 2 B (a ) to (c ) and a positive reaction of oils from olive residues ; or (b ) the characteristics mentioned in paragraph 2 B (a ) and a iC270 extinction coefficient higher than 1'10 but not higher than 2'0 , and an extinction coefficient variation in the 270 nm range not higher than 0-20 ; O D. For the purposes of subheadings 15.07 Ala ) and 15.07 A II a ), uvirgin olive oil" means natural olive oil obtained exclusively by mechanical processes, including pressure, apart from mixtures with olive oil obtained otherwise, and having the following characteristics : (a ) a K270 extinction coefficient, after treatment of the sample of oil on activated alumina, not higher than 0-11 ; in exceptional cases certain oils of high acidity, after being passed over activated alumina, may have a K270 extinction coefficient higher than 0-11 . In such cases , after neutralization and decolourization in the laboratory, they must have the characteristics of the oils falling within subheading 15.07 A I a ) of the Common Customs Tariff ; (b ) an extinction coefficient variation , in the 270 nm range, not higher than O'Ol ; (c ) no positive reaction of oils from olive residues .

3 . Subheading 15.17 A does not cover : (a ) residues resulting from the treatment of fatty substances containing oil having an iodine index, determined by the Wijs method, without catalyst, lower than 70 or higher than 100 ; (b ) residues resulting from the treatment of fatty substances containing oil having an iodine index not lower than 70 nor higher than 100, of which the peak area representing the retention volume of (5- sitosterol, determined in accordance with the provisions in Annex II to the Regulations mentioned in Additional Note 4 below , is less than 93% of the total sterol peak, areas .

CHAPTER 29

ORGANIC CHEMICALS

Notes

1 . Except where the context otherwise requires , the headings of this Chapter are to be taken to apply only to : ( a) Separate chemically defined organic compounds , whether or not containing impurities ; (b ) Mixtures of two or more isomers of the same organic compound (whether or not containing impurities), except mixtures of acyclic hydrocarbon isomers (other than stereoisomers ), whether or not saturated ( Chapter 27); (c ) The products of headings Nos 29.38 to 29.42 inclusive , or the sugar ethers and sugar esters , and their salts , of heading No 29.43 , or the products of heading No 29.44, whether or not chemically defined ; (d) Products mentioned in (a ), ( b ) or (c ) above dissolved in water ; (e) Products mentioned in ( a), (b ) or (c ) above dissolved in other solvents provided that the solution constitutes a normal and necessary method of putting up these products adopted solely for reasons of safety or for transport and that the solvent does not render the product particularly suitable for some types of use rather than for general use ; (f) The products mentioned in ( a), ( b), (c), (d) or (e) above with an added stabiliser necessary for their preservation or transport ; (g) The products mentioned in (a), ( b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) above with an added anti-dusting agent or a colouring or odoriferous substance added to facilitate their identification or for safety reasons , provided that the additions do not render the product particularly suitable for some types of use rather than for general use ; (h) Diazonium salts , arylides used as couplers for these salts , and fast bases for azoic dyes , diluted to standard strengths .

2 . This Chapter does not cover : (a ) Goods falling within heading No 15.04 or glycerol (heading No 15.11 ); (b ) Ethyl alcohol ( heading No 22.08 or 22.09) ; ( c) Methane and propane ( heading No 27.11 ) ; ( d ) The compounds of carbon mentioned in Note 2 of Chapter 28 ; (e ) Urea ( heading No 31.02 or 31.05 as the case may be); ( f ) Colouring matter of vegetable or animal origin ( heading No 32.04) ; synthetic organic dyestuffs ( including pigment dyestuffs), synthetic organic products of a kind used as luminophores and products of the kind known as optical bleaching agents substantive to the fibre and natural indigo (heading No 32.05 ) and dyes or other colouring matter put up in forms or packings of a kind sold by retail (heading No 32.09) ; (g) Metaldehyde , hexamethylenetetramine and similar substances put up in forms (for example, tablets , sticks , or similar forms ) for use as fuels , and liquid fuels of a kind used in mechanical lighters in containers of a capacity not exceeding 300 cm3 (heading No 36.08 ) ; ( h ) Products put up as charges for fire-extinguishers or put up in fire-extinguishing grenades , of heading No 38.17 ; ink removers put up in packings for sale by retail , of heading No 38.19 ; or ( ij ) Optical elements , for example , of ethylenediamine tartrate ( heading No 90.01 ).

3 . Goods which could be included in two or more of the headings of this Chapter are to be classified in the latest of those headings .

4 . Unless otherwise stipulated in the subheadings of headings Nos 29.03 to 29.05 , 29.07 to 29.10 , 29.12 to 29.21 , inclusive , and 29.22 and 29.23 , any reference to halogenated , sulphonated , nitrated or nitrosated derivatives is to be taken to include a reference to any combinations of these derivatives (for example , sulphohalogenated , nitrohalogenated , nitrosulphonated and nitrosulphohalogenated derivatives ). Nitro and nitroso groups are not to be taken as nitrogen-functions for the purpose of heading No 29.30 .

5 . (a) The esters of acid-function organic compounds falling within sub-Chapters I to VII with organic compounds of these sub-Chapters are to be classified with that compound which is classified in the heading placed last in the sub-Chapters .

138 Official Journal of the European Communities 13 . 12 . 76

29 .01

( b) Esters of ethyl alcohol or glycerol with acid-function organic compounds of sub-Chapters I to VII are to be classified with the corresponding acid-function compounds . (c) The salts of the esters referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) above with inorganic bases are to be classified with the corresponding esters . (d) The salts of other acid- or phenol-function organic compounds falling within sub-Chapters I to VII with inor­ ganic bases are to be classified with the corresponding acid- or phenol-function organic compounds . (e) Halides of carboxylic acids are to be classified with the corresponding acids.

6 . The compounds of headings Nos 29.31 to 29.34 are organic compounds the molecules of which contain, in addition to atoms of hydrogen , oxygen or nitrogen , atoms of other non-metals or of metals (such as sulphur, arsenic , mercury of lead) directly linked to carbon atoms . Heading No 29.31 (organo-sulphur compounds) and heading No 29.34 (other organo-inorganic compounds) are to be taken not to include sulphonated or halogenated derivatives (including compound derivatives) which, apart from hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen , only have directly linked to carbon the atoms of sulphur and of halogens which give them their nature of sulphonated or halogenated derivatives (or compound derivatives).

7 . Heading No 29.35 (heterocyclic compounds) is to be taken not to include internal ethers , internal hemiacetals , methylene ethers of orthodihydric phenols , epoxides with three of four member rings, cyclic acetals, cyclic polymers of aldehydes , of thioaldehydes or of aldimines , anhydrides of polybasic acids , cyclic esters of polyhydric alcohols with polybasic acids , cyclic ureides and cyclis thioureides , imides of polybasic acids , hexamethylenetetramine and trimethylenetrinitramine.

Additional Note

Within any one heading, derivatives of a chemical compound (or a group of chemical compounds ) falling within a sub­ heading are to be classified, unless otherwise stipulated, within that subheading, provided that, in the same series of sub­ headings, there exists no final subheading "other" (with no additional text). If such a subheading exists, the derivatives in question shall be classified under that final subheading "other" .

CHAPTER 40

RUBBER , SYNTHETIC RUBBER , FACTICE , AND ARTICLES THEREOF

Notes

1 . Except where the context otherwise requires , throughout the Tariff the expression " rubber " means the following products , whether or not vulcanised or hardened : natural rubber , balata , gutta-percha and similar natural gums , synthetic rubber , and factice derived from oils , and such substances reclaimed .

2 . This Chapter does not cover the following products of rubber and textiles , which fall generally within Section XI : ( a ) Knitted or crocheted fabric or articles thereof , elastic or rubberised (other than transmission , conveyor and elevator belts or belting , of rubberised knitted or crocheted fabric , of heading No 40.10) ; other elastic fabric or articles thereof ; ( b ) Textile hosepiping and similar textile tubing , internally coated or lined with rubber (heading No 59.15 ); (c) Woven textile fabrics (other than the goods of heading No 40.10) impregnated , coated , covered or laminated with rubber : (i ) Weighing not more than 1 500 g/ m2 ; or (ii ) Weighing more than 1 500 g/ m2 and containing more than 50% by weight of textile material ; and articles of those fabrics ; ( d ) Felt impregnated or coated with rubber and containing more than 50% by weight of textile material , and articles thereof ; ( e ) Bonded fibre fabrics and similar bonded yarn fabrics , impregnated or coated with rubber , or in which rubber forms the bonding substance , irrespective of their weight per square metre , and articles thereof ; (f ) Fabrics composed of parallel textile yarns agglomerated with rubber, irrespective of their weight per square metre , and articles thereof . However , plates , sheets and strip , of expanded foam or sponge rubber , combined with textile fabric , and articles thereof , are to be classified in Chapter 40 provided that the textile fabric is present merely for reinforcing purposes .

3 . The following are also not covered by this Chapter : ( a ) Footwear or parts thereof falling within Chapter 64 ; ( b ) Headgear or parts thereof (including bathing caps ) falling within Chapter 65 ; (c) Mechanical or electrical appliances or parts thereof (including electrical goods of all kinds), of hardened rubber , falling within Section XVI ; ( d) Articles falling within Chapter 90 , 92, 94 or 96 ; (e ) Articles falling within Chapter 97 (other than sports gloves and goods falling within heading No 40.11 ) ; or (f ) Buttons , combs , smoking pipe stems , pens or other articles falling within Chapter 98 .

4 . In Note 1 to this Chapter and in headings Nos 40.02, 40.05 and 40.06, the expression " synthetic rubber " is to be taken to apply to : (a ) Unsaturated synthetic substances which can be irreversibly transformed into non-thermoplastic substances by vulcanisation with sulphur and which , when so vulcanised as well as may be ( without the addition of any substances such as plasticisers , fillers or reinforcing agents not necessary for the cross-linking ), can produce substances which , at a temperature between 18° and 29 °C , will not break on being extended to three times their original length and will return , after being extended to twice their original length , within a period of five minutes , to a length not greater than one and a half times their original length . Such substances include cis-polyisoprene ( IR), polybutadiene ( BR), polychlorobutadiene ( CR), polybuta­ dienestyrene ( SBR), polychlorobutadiene-acryonitrile (NCR), polybutadiene-acrylonitrile ( NBR ) and butyl rubber ( IIR ); ( b) Thioplasts (TM); and

(c) Natural rubber modified by grafting or mixing with artificial plastic material , de-polymerised natural rubber , and mixtures of unsaturated synthetic substances with saturated synthetic high polymers , proivded that all the above-mentioned products comply with the requirements concerning vulcanisation , elongation and recovery in ( a ) above . 5 . Headings Nos 40.01 and 40.02 are to be taken not to apply to : ( a) Natural or synthetic rubber latex (including pre-vulcanised rubber latex) compounded with vulcanising agents or accelerators , fillers or reinforcing agents , plasticiers , colouring matter (other than colouring matter added solely for the purpose of identification), or with any other substance ; however , latex merely stabilised or concentrated , and thermo-sensitive and electro-positive latex are to be classified in heading No 40.01 or 40.02 as the case may be ; ( b ) Rubber which has been compounded with carbon black ( with or without the addition of mineral oil ) or with silica ( with or without the addition of mineral oil ) before coagulation or with any substance after coagulation ; or ( c ) Mixtures of any of the products specified in Note 1 to the present Chapter , whether or not compounded with any other substance . 6 . Thread wholly of vulcanised rubber , of any cross-section of which any dimension exceeds 5 mm , is to be classified as strip , rod or profile shape , falling within heading No 40.08 . 7. Heading No 40.10 is to be taken to include transmission , conveyor or elevator belts or belting of textile fabric impregnated, coated, covered or laminated with rubber or made from textile yarn or cord impregnated or coated with rubber . 8 . For the purpose of heading No 40.06 , pre-vulcanised rubber latex is to be deemed to be unvulcanised rubber latex . For the purposes of headings Nos 40.07 to 40.14 , balata , gutta-percha and similar natural gums , and factice derived from oils , and such substances reclaimed , are to be deemed to be vulcanised rubber whether or not they have been vulcanised . 9 . In headings Nos 40.05 , 40.08 and 40.15 the expressions " plates ", " sheets " and " strip " are to be taken to apply , and to apply only , to plates , sheets and strip , whether or not printed or otherwise surface-worked but not cut to shape or otherwise worked , and rectangular articles cut therefrom not further worked . In heading No 40.08 the expressions " rods " and " profile shapes " and in heading No 40.15 the expressions " rods ", " profile shapes " and "tubes " are to be taken to apply , and to apply only , to such products , whether or not cut to length or surface-worked but not otherwise worked .

CHAPTER 51

MAN-MADE FIBRES ( CONTINUOUS )

Notes

1 . Throughout the Tariff, the term " man-made fibres " means fibres or filaments of organic polymers produced by manufacturing processes , either : (a ) By polymerisation or condensation of organic monomers , for example , polyamides , polyesters , poly­ urethanes and polyvinyl derivatives ; or ( b ) By chemical tranformation of natural organic polymers ( such as cellulose , casein , proteins and algae), for example , viscose rayon , cuprammonium rayon ( cupra ), cellulose acetate and alginates . The term " synthetic textile fibres " applies to the fibres or filaments described under paragraph ( a ) above , and the term " regenerated textile fibres " to the fibres or filaments described under paragraph ( b).

2 . Heading No 51.01 is to be taken not to apply to continuous filament tow of man-made fibres falling within Chapter 56 .

3 . The expression " yarn of man-made fibres (continuous )" is to be taken not to apply to yarn (known as " ruptured filament yarn ") of which the majority of the filaments have been ruptured by passage through rollers or other devices ( Chapter 56 ).

4 . Monofil of man-made fibre materials of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 1 mm is to be classified in heading No 51.01 when of a weight less than 6*6 mg/ m (6*6 tex) and in heading No 51.02 in other cases . Monofil of which any cross-sectional dimension exceeds 1 mm is to be classified in Chapter 39 . Strip (artificial straw and the like ) of man-made fibre materials is to be classified in heading No 51.02 when of a width not exceeding 5 mm and in Chapter 39 in other cases .

(o ) Wire ( heading No 73.14): Cold-drawn products of solid section of any cross-sectional shape , of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 13 mm . In the case of headings Nos 73.26 and 73.27 , however , the term " wire " is deemed to include rolled products of the same dimensions .

( p ) Bars and rods (including wire rod) ( heading No 73.10): Products of solid section which do not conform to the entirety of any of the definitions (h), (ij ), ( k), (1 ), ( m ), ( n ) and ( o ) above , and which have cross-sections in the shape of circles , segments of circles , ovals , iso­ sceles triangles , rectangles , hexagones , octagons or quadrilaterals with only two sides parallel and the other sides equal . The expression also includes concrete reinforcing bars , which apart from minor indentations , flanges , grooves or other deformations produced during the rolling process , correspond to the above definition . ( ECSC ) " Wire rod" is a product of solid section obtained exclusively by hot rolling, and which is hot-coiled. The term also includes : 1 . Products of round or square section of which the diameter or side does not exceed 13 mm ; 2 . Products of any other section , which do not conform to the definition of hoop and strip in Note 1 (m ) above , weighing not more than 1-33 kg per linear metre .

( q ) Hollow mining drill steel ( heading No 73.10): Steel hollow bars of any cross-section , suitable for mining drills , of which the greatest external dimension exceeds 15 mm but does not exceed 50 mm , and of which the greatest internal dimension does not exceed one third of the greatest external dimension . Other steel hollow bars are to be treated as falling within heading No 73.18 .

( r) Angles , shapes and sections ( heading No 73.11 ): Products , other than those falling within heading No 73.16 , which do not conform to the entirety of any of the definitions ( h ), ( ij ), (k ), ( 1 ), ( m ), ( n ) and ( o ) above , and which do not have cross-sections in the form of circles , segments of circles , ovals , isosceles triangles , rectangles , hexagons , octagons or quadrilaterals with only two sides parallel and the other two sides equal , and which are not hollow .

CHAPTER 74

COPPER AND ARTICLES THEREOF

Notes

1 . For the purposes of heading No 74.02 , the expression " master alloys " means alloys (except copper phosphide (phosphor copper) containing more than 8% by weight of phosphorus ) containing with other alloy elements more than 10% by weight of copper , not usefully malleable and commonly used as raw material in the manufac­ ture of other alloys or as de-oxidants , de-sulphurising agents or for similar uses in the metallurgy of non-ferrous metals . ( Copper phosphide (phosphor copper) containing more than 8% by weight of phosphorus falls within heading No 28.55 and not within this Chapter .)

2 . In this Chapter the following expressions have the meanings hereby assigned to them : ' a ) Wire ( heading No 74.03 ): Rolled , extruded or drawn products of solid section of any cross-sectional shape , of which no cross-sectional dimension exceeds 6 mm . ( b ) Wrought bars , rods , angles , shapes and sections ( heading No 74.03 ) : Rolled , extruded , drawn or forged products of solid section , of which the maximum cross-sectional dimen­ sion exceeds 6 mm and which , if they are flat , have a thickness exceeding one tenth of the width . Also cast or sintered products , of the same forms and dimensions , which have been subsequently worked after produc­ tion ( otherwise than by simple trimming or de-scaling), provided that they have not thereby assumed the character of articles or of products falling within other headings . Wire-bars and billets with their ends tapered or otherwise worked simply to facilitate their entry into ma­ chines for converting them into , for example , wire rod or tubes , are however to be taken to be unwrought copper of heading No 74.01 . (c ) Wrought plates , sheets and strip ( heading No 74.04) : Flat-surfaced , wrought products (coiled or not), of which the maximum cross-sectional dimension exceeds 6 mm , and of which the thickness exceeds 0-15 mm but does not exceed one tenth of the width . Heading No 74.04 is to be taken to apply , inter alia , to such products , whether or not cut to shape , perforated , corrugated , ribbed , channelled , polished or coated , provided that they do not thereby assume the character of articles or of products falling within other headings .

3 . Heading No 74.07 is to be taken to apply , inter alia , to tubes , pipes and hollow bars which have been polished or coated , or which have been shaped or worked , such as bent , coiled , threaded , drilled , waisted , cone-shaped or finned . Heading No 74.08 is to be taken to apply , inter alia , to tube and pipe fittings which have been simil­ arly treated .

Notes

1 . This Chapter does not cover : (a) Electrically warmed blankets , bed pads , foot-muffs and the like ; electrically warmed clothing, footwear and ear pads and other electrically warmed articles worn on or about the person ; ( b ) Articles of glass of heading No 70.11 ; or (c ) Electrically heated furniture of Chapter 94 .

2. Heading No 85.01 is to be taken not to apply to goods described in heading No 85.08 , 85.09 or 85.21 , other than metal tank mercury arc rectifiers which remain classified in heading No 85.01 .

3 . Heading No 85.06 is to be taken to apply only to the following electro-mechanical machines of types commonly used for domestic purposes : ( a ) Vacuum cleaners , floor polishers , food grinders and mixers , fruit juice extractors and fans , of any weight ; ( b) Other machines provided the weight of such other machines does not exceed 20 kg . The heading does not , however , apply to dish washing machines (heading No 84.19), centrifugal and other clothes washing machines ( heading No 84.18 or 84.40), roller and other ironing machines (heading No 84.16 or 84.40), sewing machines ( heading No 84.41 ) or to electro-thermic appliances ( heading No 85.12).

4. For the purposes of heading No 85.19 , " printed circuits " are to be taken to be circuits obtained by forming on an insulating base , by any printing process (for example , embossing , plating-up , etching) or by the " film circuit " technique , conductor elements , contacts or other printed components (for example , inductances , resistors , capa­ citors) alone or interconnected according to a pre-established pattern , other than elements which can produce , rectify , modulate or amplify an electrical signal (for example , semi-conductor elements ). The term " printed circuits " does not cover circuits combined with elements other than those obtained during the printing process . Printed circuits may, however , be fitted with non-printed connecting elements . Thin- or thick-film circuits comprising passive and active elements obtained during the same technological process are to be classified in heading No 85.21 .

5 . For the purposes of heading No 85.21 : ( A) " Diodes , transistors and similar semi-conductor devices " are to be taken to be those devices the operation of which depends on variations in resistivity on the application of an electric field ; ( B ) " Electronic microcircuits " are to be taken to be : (a ) Microassemblies of the " fagot " module , moulded module , micromodule and similar types , consisting of discrete , active or both active and passive miniaturised components which are combined and inter­ connected ; ( b ) Monolithic integrated circuits in which the circuit elements ( diodes , transistors , resistors , capacitors , interconnections , etc .) are created in the mass (essentially ) and on the surface of a semi-conductor mate­ rial ( doped silicon , for example ) and are inseparably associated ; (c) Hybrid integrated circuits in which passive and active elements , some obtained by thin- or thick-film technology (resistors , capacitors , interconnections , etc .), others by semi-conductor technology ( diodes , transistors , monolithic integrated circuits , etc .), are combined , to all intents and purposes indivisibly, on a single insulating substrate (glass , ceramic , etc .). These circuits may also include miniaturised discrete components . For the classification of the articles defined in this Note , heading No 85.21 shall take precedence over any other heading in the Tariff which might cover them by reference to , in particular , their function .
