HS Code 9104.00 – Clocks; instrument panel clocks and clocks of a similar type for vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft or vessels

HS code 9104.00 is the 6-digit subheading for clocks, instrument panel clocks and clocks of a similar type for vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft or vessels. It is used for car dashboard clocks, aircraft cockpit clocks, marine chronometers, boat clocks and train clocks.

What HS 9104.00 covers

This specific HS code is dedicated to clocks designed for integration into instrument panels of vehicles, aircraft, spacecraft, or vessels. These are highly specialized timepieces built to withstand demanding environments, including vibrations, temperature extremes, and often requiring specific certifications for safety and reliability. The international trade is primarily B2B, involving manufacturers of automotive, aerospace, and marine equipment as both exporters and importers. Aftermarket suppliers also play a role. Key considerations for these clocks include their robust construction, precision, and seamless integration into complex control systems, making them critical components for navigation and operational timing in various modes of transport.

Codes often confused with 9104.00

Common mistake. Could be confused with general clocks under 9103 or 9105 if their specialized 'instrument panel' or 'vehicle/aircraft/vessel' application is overlooked; the specific end-use is critical.

Top exporters and importers of HS code 910400, 2025

In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 910400 in UN Comtrade data was Denmark, with 16% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Saudi Arabia, with 27% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

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).
