HS Code 9029.10 – Meters and counters; revolution counters, production counters, taximeters, mileometers, pedometers and the like
HS code 9029.10 is the 6-digit subheading for meters and counters, revolution counters, production counters, taximeters, mileometers, pedometers and the like. It is used for digital revolution counters, mechanical production counters, electronic taximeters, automotive odometers and bicycle cyclometers.
What HS 9029.10 covers
This HS code encompasses a diverse range of mechanical and electronic devices designed to count revolutions, production units, distance, or steps. These instruments are indispensable across various sectors, from industrial automation where they track manufacturing output, to transportation for taximeters and odometers, and even personal health with pedometers. Importers include automotive manufacturers, fitness device companies, industrial automation firms, and public transport operators. Exporters are typically countries with strong precision engineering and electronics manufacturing capabilities, capable of producing both robust industrial counters and compact consumer devices. The 'and the like' clause makes this category broad, covering many specialized counting applications essential for efficiency and record-keeping.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
