2922.19.96 - Other

This category, HTS Code 2922.19.96, encompasses amino-alcohols that do not contain more than one type of oxygen function, along with their respective ethers, esters, and salts, which are not specifically classified elsewhere within the "Other" subheadings. These compounds are characterized by the presence of both an amine group and a hydroxyl group within the same molecule. The "Other" designation at this level signifies that the specific types of amino-alcohols, ethers, esters, or salts falling within this code are not explicitly detailed by more specific subheadings.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, HTS Code 2922.19.90.00 (Salts of triethanolamine), is crucial. While both fall under "Other" amino-alcohols, this specific subheading 2922.19.96 is for all other amino-alcohols and their derivatives that are not salts of triethanolamine. This implies that 2922.19.90.00 represents a distinct and more narrowly defined group of salts, leaving 2922.19.96 to cover a broader range of miscellaneous compounds meeting the general criteria.

Within this subheading, a further subdivision exists. HTS Code 2922.19.96.90, also designated as "Other," specifically addresses N,N-(Dialkyl (methyl, ethyl, n-propyl or isopropyl)-2-aminoethanols and their protonated salts. This indicates that while 2922.19.96 serves as a residual category for various amino-alcohols and their derivatives, its child node further refines the classification to capture a specific group of dialkyl-substituted aminoethanols and their salts, creating a hierarchical structure for precise tariff application.
