3824.82.10.00 - Chlorinated but not otherwise halogenated 🖩

This HTS classification, 3824.82.10.00, specifically covers chemical products and preparations that contain chlorinated compounds, excluding those that are otherwise halogenated. These are typically mixtures or formulations where chlorine is the primary halogen present. The "Chlorinated but not otherwise halogenated" designation ensures that items containing other halogens like bromine or fluorine are excluded from this specific subcategory, even if chlorine is also present.

This category is distinct from its sibling, 3824.82.90.00, which is designated for "Other" preparations within the broader scope of goods containing polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), polychlorinated terphenyls (PCTs), or polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs). While both fall under the umbrella of goods containing certain halogenated hydrocarbons, this specific classification targets products where the halogenation is solely or predominantly chlorinated, and without the presence of other halogens.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 3824.82.10.00. Therefore, classification within this subheading relies on the definitive presence of chlorinated compounds as the sole or primary halogenated component in the preparation, and the absence of other halogenation types. This distinction is crucial for accurate customs declarations, ensuring that imported or exported goods are correctly categorized according to their specific chemical composition and properties.
