Sets put up for retail sale
Also called: retail sets · kits
Goods made up of at least two different articles classifiable in different headings, put together to meet a particular need or carry out a specific activity, and packed for sale directly to users without repacking. Under GIR 3(b) such sets are classified by the component that gives them their essential character.
In practice
Combining unrelated items in one box does not make a retail set, so each item may need to be classified separately.
