Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If post-distillation purification
Advanced refining moves it from coal tar distillate to Chapter 29 as synthetic aromatic.
If sold as chemical preparation mix
Prepared chemical mixtures not purely naphthalene fall under Chapter 38 mixtures.
If light oil distillate blend
Distillation fractions resembling light oils go to 2710 if 90% distills at 210°C.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Provide ISO 3405 or equivalent test results confirming aromatic constituents exceed non-aromatics
• Declare exact weight percentage of naphthalene to prevent reclassification during customs exam
• Ensure packaging labels distinguish from consumer mothballs to avoid retail set issues
