What products are classified under HS-4 9107?

HS-4 9107 covers time switches that include a clock, watch movement, or synchronous motor, such as programmable timers and irrigation controllers.

How do I know if my product fits under HS-6 910700?

If your time switch has a clock movement or synchronous motor, it likely fits under HS-6 910700. If it’s solely electronic, check other headings.

Are there specific requirements for importing time switches?

Yes, ensure your time switches comply with safety and regulatory standards in your importing country, and classify them correctly under HS-4 9107.

Can I use HS-4 9107 for purely electronic timers?

No, HS-4 9107 is specifically for time switches that include a clock movement or synchronous motor. Purely electronic timers may fall under different headings.

What should I do if I'm unsure about the classification?

Consult with a customs broker or trade compliance expert to ensure accurate classification and compliance with import regulations.

HS-4 · Heading

9107 — Time switches; with clock, watch movement or synchronous motor

Chapter 91: Clocks and watches

Plain-language overview

Use HS-4 9107 when importing time switches that contain a clock, watch movement, or a synchronous motor. For example, if you import a programmable timer that controls lighting based on time, this code applies.

When deciding between HS-6 910700 and other headings, consider whether your product includes a clock or watch movement. If it’s purely electronic without any mechanical timing device, it may fall under a different heading.

If your time switch is designed for specific applications, such as controlling irrigation systems or home automation, ensure it meets the criteria for this heading. Products that do not have a clock movement but are still timing devices may need a different classification.
