HS Code 9105.19 – Clocks; (excluding those with watch movements and instrument panel clocks), alarm clocks, other than electrically operated
HS code 9105.19 is the 6-digit subheading for clocks, (excluding those with watch movements and instrument panel clocks), alarm clocks, other than electrically operated. It is used for mechanical wind-up alarm clocks, battery-operated travel alarm clocks, twin-bell alarm clocks, retro analog alarm clocks and simple battery-powered bedside clocks.
What HS 9105.19 covers
This HS code covers alarm clocks that are not electrically operated, and do not feature watch movements or instrument panel applications. This typically refers to traditional mechanical wind-up alarm clocks or simple battery-powered analog alarm clocks that lack complex electronic functions. The trade in these items caters to niche markets, consumers seeking retro aesthetics, or those desiring basic, reliable timekeeping without reliance on mains electricity. Exporters often come from regions known for traditional manufacturing, while importers include specialty gift shops, antique reproduction retailers, and general merchandise stores. Their appeal lies in their simplicity, durability, and often nostalgic design, offering a distinct alternative to modern digital alarms.

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).
