About HS Code 292219
This "not elsewhere specified" (n.e.c.) category for amino-alcohols, their ethers, esters, and salts covers a diverse range of compounds that do not fit into the more specific subheadings within 2922.1. These are typically specialty chemicals with niche applications across various industries, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, polymers, and research. This code acts as a catch-all for less common or newly developed amino-alcohol derivatives. International trade under this code involves a wide array of chemical manufacturers, distributors, and research institutions. Importers and exporters are often countries with advanced chemical synthesis capabilities and strong R&D sectors. Key things to know include the highly varied nature of the products, requiring careful identification and classification to avoid mislabeling, and the potential for these compounds to be high-value, low-volume specialty chemicals used in innovative applications.
Products Under This Code
N-Butyldiethanolamine, Isopropanolamine, N-Methylisopropanolamine, Dimethylaminoethanol, Diethylaminoethanol, N-Phenyldiethanolamine, 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol
Real World Examples
BASF's AMP (Aminomethyl Propanol), Dow Chemical's DEAE (Diethylaminoethanol), Sigma-Aldrich (various specialty amino-alcohols)
Common Misclassification
This code is frequently confused with other specific amino-alcohols (e.g., 292211-292218) if the product actually has a more precise classification, or with other nitrogen-containing organic compounds (Chapter 29) if the "amino-alcohol" function is not primary.
Industry
This code belongs to the Chemicals industry.
Trade Overview
Trade is globally distributed, with significant activity in countries with strong chemical industries and research sectors like Germany, the United States, China, and Japan.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is HS code 292219?
HS code 292219 covers: Amino-alcohols, other than those containing more than one kind of oxygen function, their ethers and esters; salts thereof, n.e.c. in item no. 2922.1. This "not elsewhere specified" (n.e.c.) category for amino-alcohols, their ethers, esters, and salts covers a diverse range of compounds that do not fit into the more specific subheadings within 2922.1.

What products fall under HS code 292219?
N-Butyldiethanolamine, Isopropanolamine, N-Methylisopropanolamine, Dimethylaminoethanol, Diethylaminoethanol, N-Phenyldiethanolamine, 2-Amino-2-methyl-1-propanol
What are common misclassifications for HS code 292219?
This code is frequently confused with other specific amino-alcohols (e.g., 292211-292218) if the product actually has a more precise classification, or with other nitrogen-containing organic compounds (Chapter 29) if the "amino-alcohol" function is not primary.
How is HS code 292219 structured?
HS code 292219 is a 6-digit subheading under the Harmonized System. The first 2 digits (29) identify the chapter, digits 3-4 (22) identify the heading, and digits 5-6 (19) specify the subheading. This code is standardized globally by the World Customs Organization.
