Ammonium Bifluoride
Ammonium bifluoride ((NH4)HF2) is an inorganic acid salt applied in industrial cleaning, oil well acidizing, and metal pickling. Classified under HTS 2826.19.1000 as an 'other' ammonium fluoride complex. It qualifies as a chemically defined fluorine salt per Chapter 28 definitions, excluding organic derivatives.

Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If considered a simple hydrogen cyanide derivative or acid
Chapter note directs certain complex acids to 2811, but bifluoride stays in fluorides unless meeting specific criteria.
If for ammonium sulfates in fertilizer blends
If blended for agricultural use, Chapter 31 note 3 may redirect to 3102, excluding pure fluorides.
If impure or in retail cleaning preparations
Prepared chemical preparations for retail fall outside Chapter 28 per exclusions.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Classify based on stoichiometric formula; bifluoride remains under fluorides, not acids of heading 2811
• Comply with DOT hazardous shipping regs (Class 8 corrosive); label as 'ammonium hydrogen difluoride' accurately
• Request advance ruling from CBP if purity <98% to prevent reclassification as mixtures under 3824
