2827.60.51.00 - Other

This HTS category, 2827.60.51.00, specifically classifies "Other" inorganic iodides and iodide oxides not already enumerated. It encompasses a range of iodide compounds and their corresponding oxides that do not fall under the more specific categories for calcium, copper, or potassium iodides. These substances are typically inorganic chemical compounds where iodine, in its anionic form (iodide), or as an iodide oxide, is a principal component.

While sibling categories like 2827.60.10.00 (Of calcium or of copper) and 2827.60.20.00 (Of potassium) account for common or specifically identified metal iodides, this residual "Other" category serves to capture all remaining iodide compounds and their oxides. Classification within this node is determined by the absence of specific listing in the preceding subheadings, meaning any inorganic iodide or iodide oxide not explicitly defined elsewhere within 2827.60 would fall here, provided it meets the general criteria of the parent chapter.

As this node is a leaf node within the HTS database, there are no further subcategories to introduce. Therefore, classification here relies heavily on a process of elimination. Importers and customs brokers should meticulously verify that the substance in question is indeed an iodide or iodide oxide, is inorganic, and is not specifically accounted for in more granular classifications such as those for calcium, copper, or potassium. This ensures accurate tariff application for a diverse array of iodine-containing inorganic compounds.
