Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 300360 when importing or exporting medicaments that contain antimalarial active principles and are not packaged for retail sale. For example, bulk shipments of a liquid antimalarial solution intended for hospitals fall under this code.
This line specifically covers medicaments that are mixed together for therapeutic or prophylactic use, such as those used to prevent or treat malaria. Unlike HS-6 300370, which includes similar medicaments packaged for retail, this code is for products sold in bulk or unmeasured doses.
When considering HS-6 300360, be aware of the specific antimalarial active ingredients included, as they must align with the definitions in subheading note 2 of this chapter. Products like injectable antimalarial treatments or large containers of powder for compounding are typical examples.
If your product is a combination of different antimalarial substances in a non-retail format, this is the appropriate classification. However, medicaments that are packaged for consumer sale should be classified under HS-6 300370 instead.
