Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 291719 when importing or exporting acyclic polycarboxylic acids not classified elsewhere. An example would be a shipment of a specific acyclic polycarboxylic acid used in industrial applications.

This code is distinct from HS-6 291711, which covers specific acyclic polycarboxylic acids like citric acid. If your product doesn’t fit those precise categories but is still an acyclic polycarboxylic acid, 291719 is likely the right choice.

The HS-6 291719 line includes various acyclic polycarboxylic acids that do not fall under more specific classifications. These could be used in applications ranging from food additives to chemical synthesis.

When classifying your product, consider its chemical structure and intended use. If your product is a complex mixture of acyclic polycarboxylic acids, you may need to provide detailed documentation to support your classification.
