HS-6 · Subheading
382765
Mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane; containing other hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) but not containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs); other mixtures, not included in the subheadings above,
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 382765 when importing or exporting mixtures that contain halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane, or propane, specifically those that include hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) but exclude chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs). An example could be a shipment of a refrigerant blend used in air conditioning systems.
This code is distinct from HS-6 382764, which covers similar mixtures but specifically excludes HFCs. If your product contains HFCs, you should classify it under 382765 to ensure compliance with regulations regarding these substances.
The mixtures classified under this code often serve as refrigerants or propellants. They can be found in aerosol sprays, foam-blowing agents, and other applications where controlled thermal properties are essential. Understanding the specific chemical composition is crucial for correct classification.
When considering HS-6 382765, be aware of the packaging and labeling requirements for hazardous materials, as these mixtures may be subject to strict handling and transport regulations. Always check with your customs broker for the latest compliance guidelines.
