Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If primarily acyclic terpenoid alcohol structure
Acyclic terpenoid alcohols fall under heading 2912 (oxygen function alcohols), not cyclic in 2906.
If packaged for retail fragrance use with additives
Mixtures prepared for retail perfumery use shift to Chapter 33, mixtures of odoriferous substances.

Import Tips & Compliance
⢠Include GC-MS analysis confirming isomer identity, as customs may require proof it's specifically terpineol
⢠Declare CAS number (138-87-4 for beta form) on commercial invoice for accurate HTS verification
⢠Check REACH compliance for EU transshipments; terpineols require registration as chemical substances
