Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

2840.19.00.00Lower: 35.1% vs 35.3%

If containing 99% or more by weight of B2O3 but hydrated

Hydrated forms of disodium tetraborate fall under 2840.19 as they include water of crystallization, changing the chemical form.

2830.10.00.00Higher: 38.7% vs 35.3%

If sold as a boric acid derivative for retail or lower purity

Boric acid and similar borates not specifically refined disodium tetraborate are classified under heading 2830.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 35.3%

If mixed with organic stabilizers or as a formulated mixture

Organo-inorganic mixtures or preparations not purely chemically defined per Chapter 28 Note 2 shift to Chapter 38.

Import Tips & Compliance

Verify purity certificate to confirm anhydrous state and refined borax classification per Chapter 28 notes

Include Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for borate compounds to comply with hazardous material regulations

Avoid misclassification as hydrated borax (2840.19), which has different subheading and potential duty rates
