2912.29.60.90 - Other

This classification pertains to cyclic aldehydes that possess no other oxygen function, specifically those not categorized elsewhere within the 2912.29 subheadings. These compounds are characterized by an aldehyde group attached to a ring structure. The "Other" designation signifies that this category encompasses a broad range of cyclic aldehydes that do not fit into more specific classifications based on their structure or particular applications.

Distinct from sibling categories such as odoriferous or flavoring compounds (2912.29.60.10), this classification is not primarily defined by its sensory properties. Instead, it captures cyclic aldehydes whose principal characteristic is the presence of the aldehyde group within a ring, without explicit consideration for their use in imparting scent or flavor. The distinction lies in the fundamental chemical structure and the absence of a specific functional use driving the classification.

As a leaf node, this category does not subdivide further. Classification within 2912.29.60.90 therefore relies on a thorough understanding of the chemical nomenclature and the exclusion criteria of preceding subheadings. Importers and exporters should ensure that the cyclic aldehyde in question does not meet the specific criteria for any other subheading within 2912.29, nor does it possess additional oxygen-containing functional groups that would place it in a different HTS chapter.
