Notes on similar group 0904

Practice notes (J&C)

This group covers all kinds of scales and weighing apparatus: platform scales, letter scales, balances, steelyards, baby scales, bathroom scales, scales with body-mass analysers, weights, etc.; it is a single paragraph and the goods within it are similar to one another. There are no official notes.

Bathroom scales and body-fat scales are in this group; smart bathroom scales with health-monitoring functions are still filed as weighing apparatus in this group, and Class 10 is considered only if they also collect medical data (practical tip). Measuring instruments (callipers, rulers) are in 0905, not in this group.

No additions or deletions to this group in 2026.
