HS-6 · Subheading
293622
Vitamins; vitamin B1 and its derivatives, unmixed
Heading 2936 — Provitamins, vitamins; natural or reproduced by synthesis (including natural concentrates) derivatives thereof used as vitamins, and intermixtures of the fore-going, whether or not in any solvent
Chapter 29: Organic chemicals
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 293622 when importing or exporting unmixed vitamin B1 (thiamine) and its derivatives. For example, a shipment of pure thiamine powder for dietary supplements falls under this code.
This code specifically targets unmixed forms of vitamin B1, distinguishing it from related codes like HS-6 293621, which covers mixed vitamin B products. If your product contains multiple vitamins, consider the latter code instead.
When dealing with thiamine hydrochloride or thiamine mononitrate, both derivatives of vitamin B1, you would still classify these under HS-6 293622. Ensure that your product does not include other vitamins to avoid misclassification.
Proper classification is crucial for compliance and duty assessment. If you're unsure whether your product qualifies as unmixed, consult with your customs broker for guidance.
