Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If marketed as general organic solvent
Cleaner formulations without specific HBFC declaration may fall under general solvent mixtures in 3814.
If contains specific Annex I Montreal chemicals
If mixture includes other Montreal Protocol Annex I substances beyond HBFCs, subheading 3824.71 applies.
If predominantly one HBFC isomer
Nearly pure single HBFC compounds without significant additives classify under individual fluorocarbon headings.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Submit Form 3520-1 Significant New Use Rule notification for HBFC solvents to EPA prior to import
• Label containers with HBFC content and ozone depletion potential per 40 CFR Part 82 regulations
• Avoid misclassification as general solvents (3814); document specific HBFC composition to prevent reclassification
