HS-6 · Subheading
290219
Cyclic hydrocarbons; cyclanes, cyclenes and cycloterpenes, excluding cyclohexane
Heading 2902 — Cyclic hydrocarbons
Chapter 29: Organic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 290219 when importing or exporting cyclic hydrocarbons like cyclanes and cyclenes, excluding cyclohexane. For example, if you're shipping a sample of cyclopentane for laboratory use, this is the correct code.
This code specifically covers cyclic hydrocarbons that do not include cyclohexane, which is classified under a different HS-6 code. If you have a shipment of cyclobutane, you would also use 290219, while cyclohexane would fall under 290220.
Cyclic hydrocarbons like those classified under HS-6 290219 are often used in industrial applications, such as solvents, chemical intermediates, or in the production of other chemicals. Understanding the specific type of cyclic hydrocarbon in your shipment is key to proper classification.
When determining if 290219 applies, consider the chemical structure and intended use of your product. If your product is a cycloalkane, such as cyclopentane or cyclobutane, it fits here.
