About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS subheading, 9104.00.30, specifically classifies electric (including battery-operated) instrument panel clocks and similar timepieces designed for use in vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, or vessels. These clocks are characterized by their movements measuring over 50 mm in width or diameter and have a customs value exceeding $10 each. The "Electric (including battery operated)" qualifier is critical, distinguishing these timepieces from those powered by mechanical movements.

Within the broader category of "Instrument panel clocks and clocks of a similar type for vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft or vessels: With clock movements measuring over 50 mm in width or diameter: Valued over $10 each:", this subheading differentiates itself from its sibling, 9104.00.40.00 "Other". While the sibling covers any remaining clocks within the specified size and value thresholds that are not electric, this subheading precisely targets those powered by an electrical source. This distinction is crucial for accurate tariff application.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification hinges on the precise adherence to the criteria of being electric (battery or otherwise), designed for specific transportation applications, meeting the size requirement of over 50 mm, and exceeding the stated value threshold. Examples of goods falling under this classification would include dashboard clocks for cars, cockpit chronometers for aircraft, and bridge clocks for ships that meet these electrical power and valuation criteria.
