Product classification
HS code for Data logging multimeter: 9030.32
Multimeters, for measuring or checking voltage, current, resistance or power, with a recording device.
Classification of data logging multimeter under HS 9030.32
A data logging multimeter is classified under HS code 9030.32. This classification is found within Chapter 90, which covers measuring, checking, and precision instruments. Heading 9030 specifically applies to oscilloscopes, spectrum analyzers, and other instruments for measuring or checking electrical quantities. Subheading 9030.32 is designated for multimeters that are equipped with a recording device. A multimeter is defined as an instrument capable of measuring multiple electrical properties, such as voltage, current, and resistance. The inclusion of a "recording device"—which in modern terms refers to internal memory or data logging capabilities—is the critical technical feature that distinguishes this code from standard multimeters. These devices are used by engineers and technicians to monitor electrical systems over time, capturing fluctuations and trends that a standard real-time display would miss. The classification applies to both handheld and benchtop units, provided they possess the integrated recording function.

Codes often confused with 9030.32
Common mistake. The most common misclassification is HS code 9030.31, which is for multimeters without a recording device. If the device only displays real-time data and cannot store a sequence of measurements internally, it belongs in 9030.31. Another error is using 9030.33, which is for other instruments measuring voltage or current that are not multimeters and lack a recording device. Furthermore, standalone data loggers that only measure one parameter (like a dedicated voltmeter) may be classified under 9030.39 or 9030.84 depending on their specific configuration.
Top exporters and importers of HS 903032 (the code used for data logging multimeter), 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS 903032 (the code used for data logging multimeter) in UN Comtrade data was the Netherlands, with 17% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Germany, with 13% 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).
