Alternative Classifications

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

2921.49.50.00Higher: 31.5% vs 10%

If imported for general chemical use rather than specific photographic manufacturing

Would be classified as general aromatic sulfonamides without the specific end-use for photographic couplers

3707.90.60Higher: 35% vs 10%

If already formulated as finished photographic color coupler

Finished photographic chemicals fall under chapter 37 rather than chapter 29 intermediates
