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).

Overview

This HTS classification, 2912.21.00.00, specifically covers Benzaldehyde, an aromatic aldehyde. Benzaldehyde is characterized by an aldehyde group directly attached to a phenyl ring, giving it a distinctive almond-like odor. It is a key intermediate in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including perfumes, dyes, pharmaceuticals, and flavoring agents. Its primary function in this classification is as a pure or nearly pure chemical compound.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 2912.29, is crucial for accurate classification. While this node is exclusively for Benzaldehyde, 2912.29 encompasses all other cyclic aldehydes that do not possess any additional oxygen-containing functional groups. Therefore, if a cyclic aldehyde is not Benzaldehyde, it would be classified under the "Other" category. This distinction is based on the specific chemical structure and identity of the compound.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification at this level relies on the definitive identification of the product as Benzaldehyde. Importers and exporters should ensure that their product's chemical identity and purity align with the established specifications for Benzaldehyde to correctly utilize this classification.
