2821.10.00.30 - Yellow

This HTS classification covers yellow synthetic pigments derived from iron oxides and hydroxides. These pigments are manufactured to achieve a specific color hue, distinguishing them from naturally occurring earth colors which may contain iron oxides but are not primarily classified as synthetic pigments. The classification focuses on the synthetic nature of the pigment and its resultant yellow coloration.

Within the broader category of synthetic iron oxide pigments, this subcategory is specifically for those exhibiting a yellow color. It is distinct from the "Black" (2821.10.00.10) and "Red" (2821.10.00.20) classifications, which represent pigments with different dominant color characteristics. The "Other" (2821.10.00.40) designation is reserved for synthetic yellow iron oxide pigments that do not fall into clearly defined shades or that may have minor color variations not aligning with the primary red or black classifications, but specifically excluding non-yellow hues.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Classification into this code is based on the confirmed synthetic origin and the predominant yellow color of the iron oxide pigment. Considerations for classification would include visual inspection of the pigment's color against established color standards and confirmation of its manufactured, rather than naturally occurring, origin.
