Alternative Classifications

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

2923.20.10.00Same rate: 35%

If imported as a salt of a different amine-function compound

Chapter notes require salts to classify with the organic base; if the amine base differs, it moves to later numerical heading like 2923 for quaternary ammonium salts.

2933.99.22.00Lower: 6.5% vs 35%

If containing heterocyclic ring structure

If the molecule incorporates a heterocyclic ring, it shifts from acyclic monoamines (2921) to heterocyclic compounds in 2933 per chapter classification priority.

3824.99Lower: 15% vs 35%

If dissolved in solvent for transport with specific use adaptation

Chapter note (e) excludes solutions where solvent renders product suitable for specific use rather than general; such mixtures fall under mixtures in Chapter 38.
