HS-6 · Subheading
382790
Mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane; n.e.c. in subheading no 3827
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 382790 when importing or exporting mixtures that contain halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane, or propane, which are not classified under other specific headings. For example, a shipment of a specialized cleaning solvent that includes these halogenated compounds would fall under this code.
This code is distinct from HS-6 3827XX, which covers more specific halogenated mixtures. If your product is a pure halogenated compound, you may need to look at other classifications. Understanding the exact composition of your mixture is crucial for proper classification.
Mixtures classified under HS-6 382790 can include products used in industrial applications, such as degreasers or solvents that contain a blend of halogenated hydrocarbons. If your product is a formulated chemical that doesn’t fit neatly into other categories, this is likely the correct code.
When determining the right classification, consider the end-use of your product. For example, if you have a mixture intended for use as a refrigerant or in fire extinguishing systems, you may need to explore other specific HS codes.
