Mothproofing Grade Naphthalene from Japan

Naphthalene with a content over 50% by weight, sourced from coal tar and used for industrial mothproofing applications. This bulk product qualifies under tariff item 2707.40.00 because it meets the subheading note 3 definition for naphthalene and the aromatic constituents dominate, even though it is intended for mothproofing rather than chemical synthesis.

Import Tips

• Ensure the naphthalene content exceeds 50% by weight and provide a lab report for CBSA

• Since this is a bulk product, verify it is not packaged for retail sale, which could affect classification

• Confirm the product is not a separate chemically defined compound, which would be excluded from Chapter 27
