Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union
(2018/C 51/04)
Pursuant to the first indent of Article 9(1)(a) of Council Regulation (EEC) No 2658/87 (1), the Explanatory Notes to the Combined Nomenclature of the European Union (2) are hereby amended as follows:
On page 339, in the explanatory notes to subheadings
8525 80 91, ‘Video camera recorders’ and 8525 80 99, the following paragraph is added after the existing text:
‘These subheadings include remotely controlled apparatus for capturing and recording video and still images which are specifically designed to be used with multi-rotor helicopters (so-called drones), for example, through dedicated contact elements. These apparatus are used for capturing video and aerial still images of the environment and allow the user to visually control the flight of the drone. Such apparatus are always classified under these subheadings regardless of the length of the video recording as the video recording is the principal function. See also the HS classification opinion 8525.80/3.’
