About HS Code 292149

This 'not elsewhere specified' (NES) HS code serves as a catch-all for aromatic monoamines and their derivatives, including their salts, that do not fit into the more specific subheadings within 2921.4. It encompasses a vast and diverse array of specialty chemicals used as intermediates in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, dyes, pigments, and advanced materials. Trade in these compounds is highly varied, involving numerous chemical manufacturers and specialized industries globally, often for niche applications requiring specific chemical properties. Importers are typically fine chemical synthesis companies, while exporters range from large chemical producers to specialized boutique manufacturers. Purity, specific structure, and application-specific requirements are key trade considerations.

Products Under This Code

Benzylamine, N-methylbenzylamine, 4-aminobenzoic acid, 4-aminophenol, 3,4-dichloroaniline, 2,4-diaminotoluene, 4-aminobenzonitrile

Real World Examples

Sigma-Aldrich (research chemicals), TCI Chemicals (fine chemicals), Merck (specialty intermediates), Alfa Aesar (laboratory reagents), Acros Organics (fine chemicals)

Common Misclassification

This code is often a default for new or less common aromatic monoamines, but care must be taken to ensure they don't fit into more specific codes like 292141 (aniline), 292142 (aniline derivatives), or 292143 (toluidines).

Industry

This code belongs to the Chemicals industry.

Trade Overview

China, India, and Germany are prominent in the production and trade of this diverse category of aromatic monoamines.
