HS-4 · Heading
2925 — Carboxyimide-function compounds (including saccharin and its salts) and imine-function compounds
Chapter 29: Organic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 2925 when importing carboxyimide-function compounds, such as saccharin or its salts, and imine-function compounds. For instance, if you're bringing in saccharin for use as a sweetener in food products, this is the correct heading to consider.
When deciding between HS-6 lines, note that 292511 specifically covers saccharin and its salts, while 292512 is reserved for glutethimide, a specific pharmaceutical compound. If your product does not fit these categories, you may need to look at 292519 for other imides.
For imine-function compounds, 292521 includes chlordimeform, a pesticide, while 292529 covers other imines and their salts not specified elsewhere. Make sure to identify the specific compound you're importing to select the appropriate code.

- What are carboxyimide-function compounds?
- Carboxyimide-function compounds include substances like saccharin, which are used in various applications including food and pharmaceuticals.
- How do I know if my product is classified as an imide or an imine?
- Check the chemical structure of your product; imides typically contain a carbonyl group bonded to nitrogen, while imines contain a carbon-nitrogen double bond.
- What should I do if my product doesn't fit any HS-6 subheading?
- If your product doesn't clearly match any HS-6 subheading, consult with a customs broker for guidance on proper classification.
- Are there any restrictions on importing saccharin?
- Check local regulations, as some countries may have specific restrictions on the import of saccharin due to health regulations.
- Can I use HS-4 2925 for all carboxyimide compounds?
- No, you must select the appropriate HS-6 code based on the specific compound you are importing.
