Overview
This classification, HTS Code 2813.90.10.00, specifically designates inorganic compounds that are sulfides of nonmetals, with a particular focus on those containing arsenic. Within the broader scope of "Sulfides of nonmetals; commercial phosphorus trisulfide," this subheading captures products whose defining characteristic is the presence of arsenic in their sulfide form. These are typically chemical compounds where arsenic is bonded with sulfur, and they do not fall under more specific classifications.
It is crucial to distinguish this subheading from its siblings. HTS 2813.90.20.00 covers sulfides of nonmetals that are of phosphorus, such as phosphorus trisulfide. HTS 2813.90.50.00, conversely, is an "Other" category, intended for sulfides of nonmetals not specifically enumerated elsewhere in the 2813.90 range, including those that do not contain arsenic or phosphorus as the primary nonmetal component. Therefore, the defining factor for 2813.90.10.00 is the exclusive presence of arsenic in the specified compound type.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Classification within this heading will rely on the precise chemical composition and the definitive absence of other specifically enumerated nonmetals like phosphorus. Importers and exporters should verify the exact chemical makeup of their products to ensure accurate classification under this arsenic-specific sulfide category.
