Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

8501.31.20.00Higher: 37.8% vs 10%

If imported as fractional horsepower DC motor only

Individual motors without timekeeping assembly classify in Chapter 85 per exclusion note 1(g).

9105.21.40Same rate: 10%

If when assembled into complete battery-powered wall clock

Finished clocks with battery/fittings cases classify under heading 9105, not movements.

8543.70Higher: 12.6% vs 10%

If control circuitry emphasized over timekeeping function

Electronic integrated circuits not principally for clocks fall in Chapter 85.
