U.S. exports of multimeters with a recording device (HS 903032) totaled $5.2M in July 2026.
Importers of Multimeters with a Recording Device paid $378K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 11% on $3.3M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataRecording-capable multimeters — instruments that simultaneously measure voltage, current, resistance, and related electrical parameters while logging data over time — occupy a distinct tariff line (9030320000) separate from non-recording multimeters. The integrated data-logging function makes these instruments essential for field diagnostics, quality assurance in manufacturing, and long-duration electrical monitoring applications. Malaysia leads US import supply, followed by Germany and Poland, reflecting both high-volume electronics manufacturing and precision instrument production in those countries. Importers should confirm that the recording function is integral to the instrument, not a detachable accessory, as that distinction drives classification.

The recording function must be built into the instrument itself — typically an internal memory, data-logger circuit, or integrated output that captures measurements over time. A multimeter that merely displays readings without storing them falls under a different subheading. If the recording capability is a separable add-on module, classification may shift to the non-recording multimeter heading or to parts.
Importers should review whether shipments from specific origins are subject to Section 301 tariffs, which have applied to a broad range of electronic instruments from certain countries. Classification under 9030320000 does not itself confer exemption, so a country-of-origin analysis is essential before entry.
