2903.69 - Other:

HTS Code 2903.69 encompasses halogenated derivatives of acyclic hydrocarbons that are specifically brominated or iodinated, but do not fall under the more specific sibling categories of methyl bromide (2903.61) or ethylene dibromide (2903.62.10). This category serves as a residual classification for brominated and iodinated acyclic hydrocarbons that are not explicitly listed elsewhere within this hierarchical structure.

Distinguishing 2903.69 from its siblings involves a direct comparison of chemical identity. While 2903.61 is exclusively for methyl bromide and 2903.62.10 is for ethylene dibromide, 2903.69 will cover a broader range of other brominated or iodinated acyclic hydrocarbons. For instance, it will include compounds with different numbers of carbon atoms or different substitution patterns of bromine or iodine atoms on the acyclic hydrocarbon chain.

The subcategories within 2903.69 further refine the classification based on the specific chemical entities. 2903.69.10.00 is reserved for specific compounds such as acetylene tetrabromide, other alkyl bromides (excluding methyl bromide), methylene dibromide, and vinyl bromide. Any other brominated or iodinated acyclic hydrocarbon not meeting the criteria for 2903.69.10.00 would then be classified under the residual 2903.69.90.00, ensuring comprehensive coverage of this class of organic chemicals.
