Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 902910 when importing or exporting revolution counters, production counters, and taximeters. For instance, if you're shipping a device that measures the number of revolutions in a machine, this is the correct code to use.

This code specifically covers meters and counters that measure revolutions or distances, such as pedometers or mileometers. In contrast, HS-6 902911 refers to speed indicators and tachometers, which are designed for different applications.

When classifying your product, consider that HS-6 902910 includes devices that provide specific measurements for production or transportation, while other codes in this heading deal with different measurement types. Ensure you select the right HS code to avoid customs issues.

If you're unsure whether your device falls under this code, think about its primary function. For example, a taximeter used in a taxi would be classified here, while a stroboscope would not.
