Alternative Classifications

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

2931.90.30.00Higher: 41.5% vs 13.7%

If containing other organo-phosphorus groups beyond simple propylphosphonic structure

More complex halogenated organo-phosphorus derivatives fall under the residual 'other' subheading in 2931.90

2930.90Same rate: 13.7%

If classified primarily by sulfur functionality with incidental phosphorus

Organo-sulfur compounds take precedence per Chapter Note 3 if sulfur is directly linked to carbon, shifting from heading 2931

3824.99Higher: 15% vs 13.7%

If imported as a mixture or solution for specific industrial use rather than pure compound

Solutions exceeding Chapter 29 note (e) limits (safety/transport only) are classified as chemical preparations in Chapter 38
