Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If used as inorganic luminophore preparation
Chapter note allows 3206 for certain coloring preparations, but pure organic pigments like Red 214 stay in 3204.
If let down into polymer carrier for masterbatch
Pigment dispersed in polymer base (e.g., >50% resin) classifies as polyethylene preparations in chapter 39.
If for Pigment Violet 32, a similar isoindolenine
Related pigments in the same family but different color indices fall under separate subheadings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit BASF technical data sheet and color index (C.I
• Pigment Red 214) for binding ruling requests to lock in classification
• Check for REACH compliance labels if from EU, as US CBP may scrutinize chemical import docs
• Avoid importing pre-dispersed in resin, as that becomes a plastic color concentrate under 3206 or 3824
