HS Code 9029.90 – Meters and counters; parts and accessories for revolution and production counters, taximeters, mileometers, pedometers and the like; speed indicators, tachometers (excluding heading no. 9015), stroboscopes
HS code 9029.90 is the 6-digit subheading for meters and counters, parts and accessories for revolution and production counters, taximeters, mileometers, pedometers and the like, speed indicators, tachometers (excluding heading no. 9015), stroboscopes. It is used for LCD displays for counters, speedometer sensors, tachometer circuit boards, pedometer accelerometers and taximeter printers.
What HS 9029.90 covers
This HS code is crucial for the global supply chain supporting counting and speed-measuring devices, covering parts and accessories for revolution counters, production counters, taximeters, mileometers, pedometers, speed indicators, tachometers, and stroboscopes. It includes everything from display screens and sensors to internal circuit boards and specialized casings. Importers are typically manufacturers assembling these devices, repair shops, or companies maintaining large fleets of vehicles or industrial machinery, ensuring the longevity and functionality of critical measurement tools. Exporters are often specialized component manufacturers, frequently located in countries with strong electronics and precision manufacturing industries. The trade in these parts enables the repair, upgrade, and continued operation of essential measurement equipment across diverse sectors.

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).
