Overview
This HTS category, 2936.21.00.00, specifically covers Vitamin A and its various derivatives. This includes both naturally sourced Vitamin A and that which has been synthesized. Derivatives encompassed here are compounds that are primarily utilized for their Vitamin A activity. This classification is distinct from other vitamin categories within heading 2936, such as Vitamin B1, B2, or B12, based on the specific chemical structure and biological function of Vitamin A.
The scope of this code is focused on unmixed forms of Vitamin A and its direct derivatives. Therefore, it excludes mixtures or preparations where Vitamin A is combined with other vitamins, minerals, or active ingredients, unless the primary characteristic and classification remain as Vitamin A. Examples of products that would fall under this code include Retinol, Retinal, Retinoic Acid, and their ester forms when presented as single chemical entities or primarily recognized for their Vitamin A properties.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions within this specific HTS code. Classification at this level requires careful examination of the chemical identity of the substance being imported or exported to ensure it aligns with the definition of Vitamin A or its direct derivatives. This ensures accurate duty assessment and compliance with trade regulations.
