HS-6 · Subheading
281219
Arsenic trichloride and other chlorides and chloride oxides, n.e.c. in item no. 2812
Heading 2812 — Halides and halide oxides of non-metals
Chapter 28: Inorganic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 281219 when importing or exporting arsenic trichloride and similar chlorides that are not specifically classified elsewhere. For example, if you're shipping arsenic trichloride in a 1-liter glass bottle for chemical manufacturing, this code applies.
This code specifically covers halides and halide oxides of non-metals, particularly those related to arsenic. It's important to distinguish it from HS-6 281210, which covers arsenic pentachloride, a different compound with distinct properties and uses.
When dealing with chlorides and chloride oxides, ensure you understand the nuances of each compound. For instance, HS-6 281211 includes arsenic pentachloride, while HS-6 281219 encompasses other chlorides and chloride oxides not specifically mentioned, like arsenic trichloride.
Proper classification is vital for compliance and duty assessment. If you're unsure whether your product fits under this HS-6, consult with a customs broker or refer to relevant rulings.
