HS-6 · Subheading
292231
Amino-aldehydes, amino-ketones and amino-quinones; other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, salts thereof
Heading 2922 — Oxygen-function amino-compounds
Chapter 29: Organic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 292231 when importing or exporting amino-aldehydes or amino-ketones that contain a single oxygen function. For example, if you're shipping 4-amino-2-butanone, this is the correct code to use.
This code specifically covers compounds like amino-aldehydes and amino-ketones, which are crucial in various chemical processes. In contrast, HS-6 292232 includes amino compounds with multiple oxygen functions, which would not apply here.
If you're dealing with products like amino-phenylacetone or 2-amino-3-methylbutan-2-one, these fit under HS-6 292231. Ensure that your products do not contain more than one kind of oxygen function, or you may need to look at different classifications.
Amino-aldehydes and amino-ketones are often used in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis. Understanding the specific chemical structure is key to proper classification.

Questions & answers
For orientation only—the binding text is your national tariff and the WCO nomenclature your country uses.
- What types of products are classified under HS code 292231?
- HS code 292231 covers amino-aldehydes and amino-ketones that contain a single oxygen function, such as 4-amino-2-butanone and 2-amino-3-methylbutan-2-one.
- How do I know if my product fits under HS-6 292231?
- Check the chemical structure of your product. It should be an amino-aldehyde or amino-ketone with only one type of oxygen function to qualify for HS-6 292231.
- Can I use HS code 292231 for products with multiple oxygen functions?
- No, if your product contains more than one kind of oxygen function, you should look into a different classification, such as HS-6 292232.
- What are common applications for products classified under HS-6 292231?
- Products under HS-6 292231 are commonly used in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as intermediates in organic synthesis.
- What documentation do I need for importing amino compounds?
- You will need a commercial invoice, packing list, and possibly a certificate of analysis to confirm the chemical composition of the product.
- Are there any specific regulations for exporting amino-aldehydes?
- Yes, ensure compliance with both local and destination country regulations, including safety data sheets and proper labeling.
- How can I ensure accurate classification for customs?
- Consult with a customs broker or trade compliance expert to verify the correct HS code based on your product's chemical structure.
- What should I do if I'm unsure about the HS code for my product?
- If you're uncertain, reach out to a customs broker or refer to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule for guidance on classification.
