2908.19.35.00 - Products described in additional U.S. note 3 to section VI

This HTS category, 2908.19.35.00, encompasses specific halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives of phenols or phenol-alcohols. More precisely, it covers those derivatives containing only halogen substituents and their salts, where the halogenated compounds themselves fall under the broader "other" classification within this specific sub-division. The "Additional U.S. note 3 to section VI" provides crucial interpretive guidance for what specific chemical substances are included within this sub-heading.

Within the "Derivatives containing only halogen substituents and their salts" group, this HTS code is distinguished from its sibling, 2908.19.60.00, which is also designated as "Other." The distinction lies in the precise chemical structure and the interpretation of Additional U.S. note 3, which delineates specific compounds or classes of compounds that are to be classified under 2908.19.35.00 rather than other "other" categories at this level. Importers must carefully consult this note to ensure accurate classification.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 2908.19.35.00 is determined by whether a particular halogenated phenol or phenol-alcohol derivative, or its salt, meets the criteria outlined in Additional U.S. note 3. This often involves a detailed examination of the chemical composition and structure to confirm the presence of only halogen substituents and the exclusion of other functional groups not permitted by the note for classification under this specific code.
