HS-6 · Subheading
382759
Mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane; containing trifluoromethan (HFC-23) or perfluorocarbons (PFCs) not containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs); other mixtures n.e.c. in subheading 38
Heading 3827 — Mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane, not elsewhere specified or included
Chapter 38: Miscellaneous chemical products
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 382759 when importing or exporting mixtures that contain halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane, or propane, specifically those that include trifluoromethane (HFC-23) or perfluorocarbons (PFCs). For example, a shipment of a refrigerant blend used in cooling systems would fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 3827XX, which covers other mixtures of halogenated derivatives that may include chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). If your mixture does not contain these substances, 382759 is the appropriate classification.
Mixtures classified under 382759 are specifically noted for not containing CFCs or HCFCs, making them compliant with current environmental regulations. This is crucial for importers looking to ensure their products meet international standards.
When dealing with these mixtures, be aware of the specific components and their concentrations, as this can affect classification and regulatory compliance. Always check the product specifications to confirm they align with this HS code.
