Harmonized System Code Classification

The first two digits of the HS code "91" represent clocks and watches and their parts.

Specifically, this chapter includes the following:

• Various types of clocks and watches: Including mechanical clocks and watches, electronic clocks and watches, quartz clocks and watches, atomic clocks, hourglasses, stopwatches, etc.
• Parts of clocks and watches: Including movements, dials, cases, straps, hands, batteries, etc.
• Other timekeeping instruments: Such as taxi meters, parking timers, etc.

Reason for classification:

This chapter is classified based on the function of the item, that is, to measure, record, or indicate time. Regardless of the technology used (mechanical, electronic, quartz, etc.), as long as the main purpose of the item is to keep time, it is classified into Chapter 91.

In short, Chapter 91 is specifically used to distinguish and manage goods related to time measurement.

The first four digits of the HS code 9106:

Classification: Time recording devices and devices for measuring, recording, or otherwise indicating time intervals, with clock or watch movements or synchronous motors (e.g., time registrators, time recorders).

Description: Includes devices for measuring, recording, or indicating time intervals with clock or watch movements or synchronous motors, such as time registrators, time recorders, etc.

6-digit explanation: HS code: 9106.90

Classification: Time recorders and devices for measuring, recording, or otherwise indicating time intervals, with clock movements or synchronous motors (e.g., time registrators, time recorders)

Specific meaning: Refers to other types of time recorders and devices for measuring, recording, or otherwise indicating time intervals, with clock movements or synchronous motors.

8-10 digit explanation: HS code: 9106904000
Classification: Time recording instruments and devices for measuring, recording, or otherwise indicating time intervals, with clock movements or synchronous motors (e.g., timers, time recorders): --> Other: --> Timers with a unit price exceeding 10 USD
Explanation: This HS code covers time recording instruments and devices for measuring, recording, or otherwise indicating time intervals, with clock movements or synchronous motors, such as timers and time recorders. Specifically, it refers to other categories of timers with a unit price exceeding 10 USD.

Product examples: * Electronic timers with clock movements * Digital time recorders used in schools or offices * High-precision quartz timers for sports events * Synchronization devices with clock movements for industrial use * Digital parking timers with a unit price above 10 USD
