Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 911220 when importing or exporting clock cases and similar cases designed for goods in chapter 91, excluding watch cases. For example, if you're shipping a decorative clock case made of wood or plastic, this code is appropriate.

This code specifically covers clock cases that are not used for watches, distinguishing it from HS-6 911221, which pertains to watch cases. If your product is a case for a wall clock or a mantel clock, 911220 is the correct classification.
