These subheadings do not cover keyboards for automatic data-processing machines, in their own housing (subheading 8471 60 60).

This subheading does not include cases, whether or not with stands, for tablet Computers (tablet) or mini-tablet Computers (mini-tablet) (heading 4202 or, if they do not have a front cover, according to their constituent material). Such cases are principally designed to protect the back, the sides and the front of a tablet or a mini-tablet and are, therefore, not considered an accessory of the machines of heading 8471 because they do not increase the range of operations of a tablet or a mini-tablet nor do they perform a particular service relative to the main function of the machine.
