Alarm Clock — HS Code

Classification Notes

Bedside alarm clocks, travel alarm clocks, and digital alarm clocks are classified under 9105.11. Radio-controlled clocks (DCF77, MSF) that set themselves by radio signal are still 9105 — the radio synchronisation is an ancillary feature. Alarm clocks with radio/speaker functions are classified by essential character: if the primary function is timekeeping, it is 9105; if the primary function is a radio/speaker, it is 8527. Sunrise alarm clocks with integrated light therapy follow the same essential character test. Smart alarm clocks with WiFi and voice assistants may be 8517 if communication is primary.
