Heterocyclic compounds; with oxygen hetero-atom(s) only, (other than lactones or compounds containing an unfused furan ring (whether or not hydrogenated) in the structure), carbofuran (ISO)
Heading 2932 — Heterocyclic compounds with oxygen hetero-atom(s) only
Chapter 29: Organic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 293296 when importing or exporting heterocyclic compounds that contain oxygen hetero-atoms, specifically excluding lactones and certain furan structures. For example, shipments of carbofuran, a pesticide used in agriculture, fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 293295, which covers heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen and oxygen. If your product has a different hetero-atom composition, you’ll need to look at the corresponding HS code for accurate classification.
When dealing with HS-6 293296, you are specifically looking at compounds that are oxygen-based and do not include fused furan rings. This is important for ensuring compliance with import regulations and avoiding misclassification penalties.
If you're unsure whether your product fits this code, consider its chemical structure and intended use. For example, carbofuran is often packaged in granular form for agricultural use, which helps in identifying its 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-6 293296?
- Products like carbofuran and other heterocyclic compounds with oxygen hetero-atoms, excluding lactones and certain furan structures, are classified under this code.
- Is carbofuran the only compound under this HS code?
- No, while carbofuran is a prominent example, other heterocyclic compounds with similar characteristics may also fall under HS-6 293296.
- What should I consider when classifying my chemical product?
- Focus on the chemical structure, the presence of oxygen hetero-atoms, and whether it meets the specific exclusions outlined in the HS code.
- Are there specific packaging requirements for importing these compounds?
- Yes, packaging must comply with safety regulations and should clearly identify the contents as per the chemical classification.
- How can I ensure compliance when importing HS-6 293296 products?
- Consult with a customs broker to verify classification and ensure all documentation meets regulatory standards for import.
- What are the potential penalties for misclassifying chemicals?
- Misclassification can lead to fines, delays in shipment, and potential seizure of goods by customs authorities.
- Can I export products classified under HS-6 293296?
- Yes, but ensure you comply with both export regulations and the regulations of the importing country.
- What is the difference between HS-6 293295 and HS-6 293296?
- HS-6 293295 covers heterocyclic compounds with nitrogen and oxygen, while HS-6 293296 is specifically for those with oxygen hetero-atoms only.
