p-Dichlorobenzene from United States
p-Dichlorobenzene, or 1,4-dichlorobenzene, is a benzene derivative with two chlorine atoms at opposite positions on the ring. It is a separate chemically defined organic compound of Chapter 29, primarily used in mothballs and as a deodorizer in consumer products. Under tariff item 2903.89.00, it is classified as an 'other' halogenated derivative of cyclanic, cyclenic, or cycloterpenic hydrocarbons, as the specific subheading for dichlorobenzene isomers is not applicable to this isomer.

Import Tips
• Verify the isomer is para-dichlorobenzene and not a mixture, as purity affects classification
• If the product is put up for retail sale as mothballs, check if it falls under a different heading for consumer products
• Ensure compliance with Canadian consumer product safety regulations if imported for household use
