9107.00
Time switches with clock or watch movement or with synchronous motor
Analysis
Subheading 9107.00 covers time switches with clock or watch movement or with synchronous motor, within heading 9107. The first six digits are shared by every country that uses the Harmonized System, so this part of the code is the same in the US, UK and EU schedules; the 2 US tariff lines below it are national.
The US splits it as follows: 9107.00.40 for valued not over $5 each (15¢ each + 4% + 2.5¢/jewel) and 9107.00.80 for valued over $5 each (45¢ each + 6.4% + 2.5¢/jewel).
2 of the lines carry specific or compound rates (per kilogram, per dozen and so on) rather than a percentage, so their burden depends on the unit value of the goods.
By Census's concordance, most of its statistical lines are made by Switchgear and Switchboard Apparatus Manufacturing (335313) and Automatic Environmental Control Manufacturing for Residential, Commercial, and Appliance Use (334512). Those are the NAICS industries a US producer of these goods would report under.
