Product characteristics and classification

CN code 330690 covers other oral or dental hygiene preparations classified under Chapter 33 of the Combined Nomenclature. Classification is based on chemical composition, commercial form, and intended use. Notes to Chapter 33 specify the scope of individual subheadings. Customs clearance requires proper product identification based on technical documentation, analytical certificates, and commercial specifications. Import of such products into the EU requires compliance with tariff and non-tariff requirements under EU regulations. Potential trade policy measures such as anti-dumping duties or tariff quotas that may affect import costs should also be considered.

Chemical regulations and environmental protection

Import of goods under CN code 330690 into the EU is subject to the REACH Regulation (EC No 1907/2006) and CLP Regulation (EC No 1272/2008). The importer must ensure ECHA registration of each substance. A Safety Data Sheet (SDS) compliant with Regulation (EU) 2020/878 is required. These products may also be subject to the Cosmetics Regulation (EC) 1223/2009 and CPNP notification. CLP labelling must include hazard pictograms, signal words, H and P statements. Transport is subject to ADR/RID regulations. These substances are not subject to CBAM. Storage must comply with environmental and occupational health and safety requirements.

Practical guidance for importers

Customs declarations for imports under CN code 330690 should include full specification, CAS numbers, commercial form, and intended use. Importers may benefit from tariff preferences under EU trade agreements or the GSP system. Rate verification in the TARIC database is recommended before each transaction. Export may require verification under the Dual-Use Export Control Regulation (EU) 2021/821. Quality control should include chemical composition testing, specification compliance, and safety requirements verification.

EU Cosmetics Regulation 1223/2009

Importing cosmetics under CN code 3306 90 (Other oral or dental hygiene preparations) is governed by Regulation (EC) 1223/2009. Every cosmetic product placed on the EU market must be notified via the CPNP portal and have a designated Responsible Person based in the EU. A Cosmetic Product Safety Report (CPSR) is mandatory. The composition must comply with lists of allowed, prohibited, and restricted substances (Annexes II-VI).

How to verify correct classification under code 330690?
Classification can be confirmed by obtaining Binding Tariff Information (BTI) from the customs authority. A BTI is valid for 3 years and binds customs authorities in all EU Member States. Consulting a customs agency or tariff advisor is also recommended.
