Tariff classification

CN code 382499 covers other chemical products and preparations of the chemical or allied industries, not elsewhere specified, including mixtures of natural products. This is a residual heading covering a wide range of chemical preparations not classified under more specific codes. Example products include concrete admixtures, anti-corrosion preparations, metalworking fluids, lubricant preparations, and other industrial chemicals. Classification requires the product to be a chemical preparation intended for industrial use.

REACH, CLP and safety regulations

Chemical products under code 382499 are subject to REACH and CLP. Substances and mixtures must be registered with ECHA, correctly labelled, and have SDS. Due to product diversity under this code, regulatory requirements depend on specific composition and intended use. Biocidal products, plant protection products, and cosmetic preparations have dedicated sectoral regulations. The importer must ensure compliance with requirements appropriate for the declared use.

Import and customs procedures

The customs declaration under CN code 382499 should include trade name, chemical composition, application, and CLP classification. Customs authorities may require SDS and REACH documentation. Due to the residual nature of the code, customs may scrutinise classification in detail. Duty rates are checked in TARIC.

Other chemical products - identification

Other chemical products under CN 3824 99 form a residual subheading for preparations not assigned to other CN 3824 codes. Import requires precise composition identification, SDS and REACH registration. Importers should ensure correct tariff classification in the TARIC system and present complete customs documentation. Customs authorities verify product compliance with the declared CN code and collect applicable duties and import VAT.

Frequently asked questions

What products are classified under code 382499?
Code 382499 is a residual heading covering chemical preparations not covered by more specific codes, including concrete admixtures, metalworking fluids, anti-corrosion preparations, specialised chemical mixtures, and other industrial chemicals. Classification requires excluding more specific codes.
Can customs challenge classification under code 382499?
Yes, due to the residual nature of the code, customs may scrutinise classification in detail and request documentation confirming the product does not qualify under a more specific code. Obtaining Binding Tariff Information is recommended.
What REACH documents are required for import?
Required are SDS, REACH registration number or only representative confirmation, documentation confirming absence of restricted substances above limits. Exact requirements depend on the chemical composition and intended use of the product.
What is the difference between CN 3824 99 and CN 3824 90?
CN 3824 90 and CN 3824 99 are residual subheadings under heading 3824. Classification depends on chemical composition and end use. BTI is recommended where uncertainty exists.
