Compliance regimes on this code

Beyond the duty rate, these EU regimes attach to this code. Each verdict follows from the code alone; the goods themselves can still fall outside a regime.

Possible dual-use control codes

Indicative correlation only. The mapping from customs codes to dual-use control codes is guidance, not a classification. Whether an item is controlled depends on its technical parameters.

Zu Unterposition 9022 12: Zu dieser Unterposition gehören insbesondere so genannte Ganzkörper-Computertomografen. Hierbei handelt es sich um Radiodiagnose-Systeme zur Untersuchung des ganzen menschlichen Körpers mittels elektronischer Radiografie (Tomografie) von Querschnitten des Körpers. Die Körperabschnitte werden in mehreren Schritten schichtweise mit einem Röntgenstrahl abgetastet. Die unterschiedliche Abschwächung der Röntgenstrahlen im Körper wird von hunderten von Detektoren gemessen, die ringförmig um den Tunnel angebracht sind, in dem der Patient auf einem Tisch liegt. Die automatische Datenverarbeitungsmaschine des Systems wandelt die von den Sensoren gelieferten Daten in ein Bild um, das auf dem Monitor des Systems wiedergegeben wird. Die tomografischen Bilder werden im Allgemeinen von einer im System eingebauten Spezialkamera fotografiert und ggf. …

Frequently asked questions

What does customs tariff code 9022.12.00.00 cover?

Code 9022.12.00.00 covers Computed tomography apparatus. Classification turns on the material, function, and intended use of the goods, not on their trade name.

What is the duty rate for 9022.12.00.00?

The third-country duty rate for 9022.12.00.00 is 0 %. Goods originating in a country with a preferential agreement may qualify for a lower rate against valid proof of origin.

What is the HS code for 9022.12.00.00?

The first six digits form the HS code: 902212. Those are uniform worldwide, while the further digits carry the EU Combined Nomenclature and the national subdivision.

How many digits does 9022.12.00.00 have?

9022.12.00.00 has ten digits and carries the EU measures held in TARIC. A German import declaration requires the eleven-digit commodity code.

Where does 9022.12.00.00 sit in the tariff?

9022.12.00.00 sits in this hierarchy: 90 OPTICAL, PHOTOGRAPHIC, CINEMATOGRAPHIC, MEASURING, CHECKING, PRECISION, MEDICAL OR SURGICAL INSTRUMENTS AND APPARATUS; PARTS AND ACCESSORIES THEREOF > 9022 Apparatus based on the use of X-rays or of alpha, beta, gamma or other ionising radiation, whether or not for medical, surgical, dental or veterinary uses, including radiography or radiotherapy apparatus, X-ray tubes and other X-ray generators, high tension generators, control panels and desks, screens, examination or treatment tables, chairs and the like > 902212 Computed tomography apparatus. The parent headings and their notes help decide whether the classification holds.

Is there binding tariff information for 9022.12.00.00?

Yes. The EBTI database holds decisions on 9022.12.00.00, for example DEBTI34480/23-1. A BTI shows which product characteristics the customs authority relied on.

What happens if the customs tariff code is wrong?

An incorrect code leads to post-clearance recovery of duty and import VAT, delays at clearance, and a penalty where it repeats. A classification with documented reasoning can be defended in an audit.

Is 9022.12.00.00 a dual-use item?

The customs code alone does not decide that. An indicative correlation links 9022.12.00.00 to 1B001e, 1B001f, 1B001f. Whether your item is listed depends on its technical parameters and has to be checked against the wording of the control list.

Does customs tariff code 9022.12.00.00 change?

9022.12.00.00 is currently valid. The Combined Nomenclature is amended every 1 January, so master data should be checked against the current tariff annually.
