Chapter 91: Clocks and watches

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 9102 when importing wrist-watches, pocket-watches, stop-watches, or other watches that are not classified under heading 9101. For instance, if you're shipping a batch of electrically operated wrist-watches with mechanical displays, this is the code you'll need.

Choosing the correct HS-6 line under 9102 depends on specific features of the watches. For example, if your wrist-watches have an opto-electronic display, you should classify them under 910212. If they have only a mechanical display, use 910211 instead.

If your shipment includes pocket-watches or other types of watches, you need to consider whether they are electrically operated or not. Use 910291 for electrically operated pocket-watches and 910299 for those that are not.

When determining the correct classification, also consider winding mechanisms. For wrist-watches with automatic winding, select 910221; for those without, use 910229. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff application.
