Alternative Classifications

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

2909.19Same rate: 35%

If for shorter chain polyhydric alcohol dichlorides not explicitly named

Moves to general 'Other' ethers of polyhydric alcohols when specific naming doesn't apply.

2915.90.50Lower: 28.8% vs 35%

If ester contaminants exceed 1% making oxygen-function dominant

Presence of significant ester groups would reclassify under saturated acyclic monocarboxylic acid esters.

9802.00.80Lower: 10% vs 35%

If when imported as article for further processing rather than bulk chemical

Subheading for articles for further manufacture shifts from bulk chemical classification.

Import Tips & Compliance

• Submit NMR or GC-MS spectra confirming ether-dichloride structure to distinguish from simple alkyl halides

• Declare exact CAS number (111-26-2) on commercial invoice for customs verification

• Ensure proper UN packaging certification for Hazard Class 6.1 toxic liquid import
