Import Tips

• Verify the display is purely opto-electronic (LED/LCD) with no analog hands to avoid reclassification under 9105.11.20

• Include technical specs confirming electrical operation and compliance with Chapter 91 size limits for movements (under 50mm)

• Label clearly as 'alarm clock' and provide user manual to distinguish from timers or general displays in Chapter 85
