What is NOT Classified Here?
Excluded from this heading are:
- Other inorganic salts not specified as chlorates, perchlorates, bromates, perbromates, iodates, or periodates.
- Organic compounds and salts, which are classified in other chapters of the HTS.
- Prepared chemical mixtures or compounds where these salts are not the principal component.
Notes
- Industrial Use: These chemicals are commonly used as oxidizing agents in manufacturing, water treatment, and as intermediates in chemical synthesis.
- Regulatory Compliance: Import and export of these chemicals may be subject to regulatory controls due to their potential use in explosives or other controlled applications.
- Duty Rates: Duty rates may vary depending on the specific subheading and country of origin; always consult the latest USHTS for applicable rates.
