What is the HS code for feldspar?
Use this as a comparison hint, then confirm the final decision with legal notes and country-specific rules.
HS-4 · Heading
2529 — Feldspar; leucite; nepheline and nepheline syenite; fluorspar
Chapter 25: Salt; sulphur; earths and stone
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 2529 when importing or exporting feldspar, leucite, nepheline, or fluorspar. For example, if you're shipping a bulk load of feldspar for use in ceramics, this is the right classification to consider.
When determining the correct HS-6 subheading, note that 252910 specifically covers feldspar, while 252921 and 252922 focus on fluorspar based on calcium fluoride content. If your fluorspar contains 97% or less calcium fluoride, use 252921; if it exceeds that, go with 252922.
For products like leucite, nepheline, and nepheline syenite, you should refer to 252930. This subheading is distinct from feldspar and fluorspar, so ensure your product matches these descriptions before proceeding.
