WCO Notes for Heading 2925

29.25 - Carboxyimide-function compounds (including saccharin and its salts) and imine-function compounds.

- Imides and their derivatives; salts thereof :

2925.11 - - Saccharin and its salts

2925.12 - - Glutethimide (INN)

2925.19 - - Other

- Imines and their derivatives; salts thereof :

2925.21 - - Chlordimeform (ISO)

2925.29 - - Other

(A) IMIDES

Imideshave the general formula (R=NH), where R is a dibasic acyl radical.

(1) Saccharin or 1,2-benzisothiazolin-3-one 1,1-dioxide and its salts*. Saccharin is an odourless, white crystalline powder having a very sweet taste; its sodium and ammonium salts have a lower sweetening power but are more soluble. Tablets consisting solely of one of these products remain in this heading.

Preparations, used in human diets, consisting of a mixture of saccharin or its salts and a foodstuff, such as lactose, are however excluded from this heading and fall in heading 21.06 (see Note 1 (b) to Chapter 38). Those preparations consisting of saccharin or its salts and substances, other than a foodstuff, such as sodium hydrogencarbonate (sodium bicarbonate) and tartaric acid fall in heading 38.24.

(2) Succinimide, used in chemical synthesis.

(3) Phthalimide, used in chemical synthesis.

(4) Glutethimide. A psychotropic substance - see the list at the end of Chapter 29.

Organic imide derivatives of inorganic acids are classified in heading 29.29.

(B) IMINES

Imines, like imides, are characterised by the group =NH, but it is linked to a non-acidic organic radical : (R₂C=NH).

(1) Guanidines*. The action of cyanamide on ammonia gives an imino-urea known as guanidine; this can be regarded as derived from urea by replacing the oxygen of the (C=O) group by an imino group (=NH) :

H₂NCONH_{2......................................................................} (H₂N)₂C=NH

urea guanidine

Guanidine is also formed in the oxidation of proteins; it can also be obtained synthetically. It is crystalline, colourless and deliquescent.

Its derivatives include :

(a) Diphenylguanidine*. Rubber accelerator.

(b) Di-o-tolylguanidine. Rubber accelerator.

(2) Aldimines. These have the general formula (RCH=NR¹) where R and R¹are alkyl or aryl radicals (methyl, ethyl, phenyl, etc.) or sometimes hydrogen.

They constitute the products known as Schiff’s bases, the most important of which are :

(a) Ethylideneaniline.

(b) Butylideneaniline.

(d) Ethylidene-p-toluidine.

All these products are used in the rubber industry.

(3) Imino ethers*.

(4) Amidines.

(5) 2,6-Dichlorophenolindophenol.

This heading excludes, however, cyclic polymers of aldimines (heading 29.33).

FAQs

What is HS code 2925?

HS code 2925 includes Organic chemicals - Carboxyimide-function compounds (including saccharin and its salts) and imine-function compounds..

How many sub-headings are there in HS code 2925?

There are 5 sub-heading(s) in HS code 2925.

What is an HS Code and Why Does it Hold For Cross-Border Trade?

HS code is a standardized six-digit numerical classification system developed by the World Customs Organization (WCO) and acts as a universal language for simplifying the process of identifying and classifying traded products. They ensure consistent customs clearance, enable accurate duty calculation, and help identify relevant trade regulations. This simplifies the process for businesses, saving time, reducing risk, and promoting informed decision-making.

What are Controls and Why should Businesses Focus on Them?

In global trade, controls refer to a set of regulations and policies implemented by governments to manage the import and export of goods and services. These controls can take various forms, including tariffs, quotas, embargoes, export controls, and licensing requirements. Companies should prioritize understanding and adhering to them for compliance, reduced risk of legal issues, mitigating reputational damage, staying competitive, and building trust with governments.

What are Tariffs in Global Trade and Why should Businesses Focus on Them?

In global trade, tariffs are a type of tax levied by a government on imported goods. They act as a financial barrier to entry, increasing the overall cost of the imported product for domestic consumers and businesses. By understanding how tariffs work and their potential impact, companies can make informed decisions about pricing, sourcing, and market expansion, ultimately ensuring their competitiveness in the global marketplace.

What are FTAs in Global Trade and Why should Businesses Focus on Them?

In global trade, Free Trade Agreements (FTAs) are legally binding agreements between two or more countries aimed at reducing or eliminating barriers to trade between them. By understanding the terms of relevant FTAs and strategically incorporating them into their business plans, companies can enjoy reduced costs, expanded market access, and a more competitive edge in international trade.
