Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 300339 when importing or exporting medicaments that contain hormones for therapeutic purposes, but are not packaged for retail sale. An example would be a bulk shipment of hormone-based treatments for hospitals or clinics.
This code specifically covers medicaments with hormones, excluding insulin and antibiotics. If your product contains antibiotics, you would need to look at a different HS code, such as 3003.31 for those medicaments.
When classifying your product, it's important to note that 300339 is distinct from 300338, which covers similar medicaments but may include different constituents or packaging types. Ensure your product's characteristics align with the correct HS-6 code.
If you're dealing with a medicament that is packaged for retail sale, you should refer to other codes under heading 3003 that cater to retail-packaged products, as 300339 is strictly for bulk or non-retail forms.
