Heading 2922Oxygen-function amino-compounds

Chapter 29: Organic chemicals

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 292221 when importing or exporting amino-naphthols and similar compounds, such as 1-amino-2-naphthol. These are often used in dye manufacturing and pharmaceuticals.

This code specifically covers amino-naphthols and other amino-phenols that do not have multiple oxygen functions. For instance, if you’re dealing with 2-amino-1-naphthol, this is the right classification.

In contrast, HS-6 292222 includes amino-phenols with multiple oxygen functions, which would not apply to your shipment of single-function compounds under HS-6 292221.

When classifying your products, consider that the presence of additional functional groups can shift the classification. Always verify if your product fits the specific criteria outlined for this HS-6.
