Okay, let's break down the HS codes and tax implications for your declared goods. Here's a detailed analysis, presented in a structured format to help you understand the classification and potential costs.
Important Note: HS code classification is complex and relies on the precise composition and intended use of the goods. This analysis is based on the descriptions provided. It's crucial to verify these codes with your supplier and potentially with customs authorities to ensure accuracy.
1. HS Code: 3307.90.00.00 – Other preparations for personal care
- Description: Pre-shave, shaving or after-shave preparations, personal deodorants, bath preparations, depilatories and other perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations, not elsewhere specified or included; prepared room deodorizers, whether or not perfumed or having disinfectant properties: Other
- Breakdown:
- 33: Essential oils and resinoids; perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations. This chapter broadly covers fragrances and personal care items.
- 07: Perfumery, cosmetic or toilet preparations. Specifically focuses on the finished products.
- 90: Other. This indicates the product doesn't fall into more specific subcategories within 3307.
- 00.00: Further specifies "Other" within the 3307.90 category.
- Tax Implications:
- Basic Duty: 5.4%
- Additional Duty: 25.0%
- Total Tax (Current): 60.4%
- Post April 2, 2025: Additional Duty increases to 30%, resulting in a total tax of 60.4%.
- Key Considerations: This code covers a wide range of products. Please confirm the exact ingredients and intended use of your product. The presence of specific ingredients (e.g., sunscreen agents, medicinal components) could shift the classification.
2. HS Code: 3824.99.39.90 – Mixtures of inorganic compounds
- Description: Prepared binders for foundry molds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries (including those consisting of mixtures of natural products), not elsewhere specified or included: Other: Other: Mixtures of two or more inorganic compounds: Other Other
- Breakdown:
- 38: Chemical products; not elsewhere specified or included. This chapter covers a broad range of industrial chemicals.
- 24: Prepared binders for foundry molds or cores; chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries.
- 99: Other. This indicates the product doesn't fall into more specific subcategories within 3824.
- 39: Mixtures of two or more inorganic compounds.
- 90: Further specifies "Other" within the 3824.99.39 category.
- Tax Implications:
- Basic Duty: 0.0%
- Additional Duty: 25.0%
- Total Tax (Current): 55.0%
- Post April 2, 2025: Additional Duty increases to 30%, resulting in a total tax of 55.0%.
- Key Considerations: Crucially, confirm the exact composition of the mixture. The presence of organic compounds, or specific applications, could change the HS code. The intended use of the mixture is also important.
3. HS Code: 2852.90.90.00 – Other inorganic mercury compounds
- Description: Inorganic or organic compounds of mercury, whether or not chemically defined, excluding amalgams: Other: Other
- Breakdown:
- 28: Inorganic chemicals; organic chemicals.
- 52: Inorganic compounds of mercury, whether or not chemically defined, excluding amalgams.
- 90: Other. This indicates the product doesn't fall into more specific subcategories within 2852.
- 90: Further specifies "Other" within the 2852.90 category.
- Tax Implications:
- Basic Duty: 3.0%
- Additional Duty: 25.0%
- Total Tax (Current): 58.0%
- Post April 2, 2025: Additional Duty increases to 30%, resulting in a total tax of 58.0%.
- Key Considerations: The presence of mercury compounds often requires specific import permits and safety documentation. Verify the exact chemical composition and concentration of mercury.
4. HS Code: 2942.00.50.00 – Other organic compounds
- Description: Other organic compounds: Other
- Breakdown:
- 29: Organic chemicals.
- 42: Other organic compounds.
- 00: Further specifies "Other" within the 2942 category.
- 50: Further specifies "Other" within the 2942.00 category.
- Tax Implications:

- Total Tax (Current): 58.7%
- Post April 2, 2025: Additional Duty increases to 30%, resulting in a total tax of 58.7%.
- Key Considerations: This is a very broad category. Provide a detailed chemical formula or CAS number for accurate classification. The specific function and application of the compound are also important.
Recommendations:
- Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS): Obtain MSDS for all chemical products.
- Chemical Composition: Provide precise chemical formulas or CAS numbers for each product.
- Intended Use: Clearly define the intended use of each product.
- Supplier Verification: Confirm these HS codes with your supplier.
- Customs Consultation: Consider consulting with a customs broker or directly with customs authorities for final confirmation.
- Post April 2, 2025: Be aware of the upcoming changes in additional duty rates.
