HS Code for Chloride oxides

Introduction to HS Codes and Chloride Oxides

In the complex world of international trade and logistics, having a standardized system for classifying goods is crucial. This is where Harmonized System (HS) codes come into play. For those dealing with inorganic compounds and chemical intermediates like chloride oxides, understanding the relevant HS codes is essential for smooth customs clearance and compliance with international trade regulations.

Chloride oxides are an important class of inorganic compounds used in various industrial applications. As chemical intermediates, they play a vital role in the production of other chemicals and materials. Given their significance in global trade, it's crucial for importers, exporters, and logistics professionals to be familiar with the HS codes associated with these compounds.

Understanding HS Codes

The Harmonized System, developed and maintained by the World Customs Organization (WCO), is an international nomenclature for the classification of products. It allows participating countries to classify traded goods on a common basis for customs purposes. At FreightAmigo, we understand the importance of accurate HS code classification in ensuring smooth international shipments.

An HS code consists of six digits, which can be further extended with additional digits for more specific classifications by individual countries. The first two digits represent the chapter, the next two identify the heading within that chapter, and the final two digits specify the subheading.

HS Codes for Chloride Oxides

Chloride oxides fall under Chapter 28 of the HS, which covers "Inorganic chemicals; organic or inorganic compounds of precious metals, of rare-earth metals, of radioactive elements or of isotopes." More specifically, chloride oxides are classified under heading 28.12: "Halides and halide oxides of non-metals."

The specific HS code for chloride oxides is:

2812.10 - Chlorides and chloride oxides

This subheading includes various chloride oxides, such as:

• Sulfur oxychloride (sulfuryl chloride)
• Thionyl chloride
• Carbonyl chloride (phosgene)
• Nitrogen oxychloride (nitrosyl chloride)
• Phosphorus oxychloride

Importance of Correct HS Code Classification

Accurate HS code classification is crucial for several reasons:

1. Customs duties and taxes: The HS code determines the applicable tariff rates and taxes.
2. Trade statistics: Governments use HS codes to track import and export data.
3. Regulatory compliance: Certain goods may be subject to specific regulations or restrictions based on their HS code.
4. Trade agreements: Preferential tariff treatments under free trade agreements often depend on the HS classification.
