3808 9450 95
Overview
This HTS classification covers disinfectants that do not contain aromatic or modified aromatic active ingredients, which are instead categorized under sibling code 3808.94.10.00. The products classified here are intended for various sanitizing and disinfecting purposes, excluding those specifically formulated with aromatic compounds. This category is designed to capture a broad range of disinfectant preparations and articles not otherwise specified.
Within this "Other" disinfectant category, several specific subcategories exist to provide more granular classification. These include wipes impregnated with alcohol or other disinfectants (3808.94.50.10), and hydrogen peroxide-based disinfectant preparations for surface sanitization (3808.94.50.50). Additionally, alcohol-based hand sanitizers containing 60 percent or more ethanol are separately identified (3808.94.50.80) according to specific statistical notes.
The final subcategory, 3808.94.50.95, serves as a residual category for any disinfectants not falling into the more specific subheadings. This includes a wide array of liquid, solid, or gaseous disinfectants and articles treated with disinfectants, provided they are presented in forms or packings for retail sale or as preparations or articles, and do not contain aromatic or modified aromatic disinfectants. The key distinction remains the absence of these specific aromatic compounds, differentiating them from the sibling classification.
