Alternative Classifications

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

3809.92.50.00Higher: 41% vs 38.7%

If supplied ready-formulated as finishing agent with catalysts

Textile finishing preparations containing glyoxal as active ingredient but with functional additives classify in Chapter 38.

2912.60.00.00Higher: 40.1% vs 38.7%

If paraformaldehyde content exceeds trace levels

Cyclic polymers of aldehydes fall under separate heading 2912.60, distinguished from acyclic glyoxal.

3302.10.50.00Lower: 19.4% vs 38.7%

If diluted and perfumed for cosmetic preservation use

Mixtures with odoriferous substances for specific consumer applications excluded per Chapter 29 note (g).

Import Tips & Compliance

• Provide end-use statement confirming textile crosslinking application to distinguish from excluded tanning preparations

• Test for stabilizer content (<1%) to ensure compliance with Chapter 29 note (f) preservation-only additives

• Declare exact glyoxal concentration via HPLC certificate to avoid undervaluation penalties
