About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 2904.20.35.00, specifically covers nitrated benzene, nitrated toluene (excluding p-nitrotoluene), and nitrated naphthalene. These are organic compounds where nitro (-NO2) groups have been introduced onto the aromatic rings of benzene, toluene, or naphthalene. The classification is intended for those specific nitrated derivatives not otherwise enumerated at the more specific sibling levels.

It is crucial to distinguish this category from its siblings. 2904.20.10.00 covers p-nitrotoluene, while 2904.20.20.00 is for trinitrotoluene. 2904.20.30.00 encompasses 5-tert-Butyl-2,4,6-trinitro-m-xylene (Musk xylol) and other artificial musks. Therefore, 2904.20.35.00 serves as a residual category for other nitrated benzene, toluene (excluding the para isomer), and naphthalene compounds that do not fall under these more precisely defined sibling codes.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level relies on the accurate identification of the specific chemical structure, ensuring that the compound is a nitrated derivative of benzene, toluene (not p-nitrotoluene), or naphthalene, and is not specifically classified elsewhere within the broader 2904.20.00 heading. Common examples might include ortho-nitrotoluene or meta-nitrotoluene, as well as various nitrated naphthalenes not otherwise specified.
