Chapter 38: Miscellaneous chemical products
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 380590 when importing or exporting terpenic oils produced from coniferous woods, such as crude dipentene or sulphite turpentine. For instance, if you are shipping a batch of crude pine oil extracted from resin, this code applies.
This code is specifically for terpenic oils that don't fall into other defined categories under heading 3805. For example, if you have a product that contains a mixture of terpenes not specifically classified elsewhere, 380590 is the correct choice.
In contrast, if your product is pure pine oil containing alpha-terpineol, you would classify it under a different HS code, such as 380591. Understanding these distinctions helps ensure accurate customs declarations.
The broader chapter 38 encompasses various chemical products not elsewhere classified, but 3805 narrows it down to specific oils and terpenes from coniferous sources, providing a more focused classification for trade.
