HS Code 2933.92 – Heterocyclic compounds; azinphos-methyl (ISO)
HS code 2933.92 is the 6-digit subheading for heterocyclic compounds, azinphos-methyl (ISO). It is used for azinphos-methyl technical grade, azinphos-methyl 50% WP, azinphos-methyl EC formulations and azinphos-methyl standards.
What HS 2933.92 covers
This HS code is dedicated solely to Azinphos-methyl (ISO), an organophosphate insecticide. Historically, it was widely used in agriculture to control a broad spectrum of insect pests on various crops. However, due to its high toxicity to humans and the environment, its use has been severely restricted or banned in many countries, particularly in North America and Europe. Trade in Azinphos-methyl is therefore highly regulated, often limited to specific regions with less stringent environmental controls or for very specific, approved applications. Importers and exporters are typically agricultural chemical companies, and trade volumes have significantly declined over the past decades due to global health and environmental concerns.

Codes often confused with 2933.92
Common mistake. This specific code is unlikely to be confused with others due to its singular focus, but other organophosphate insecticides might fall under 2934 or broader pesticide categories in 3808.
Top exporters and importers of HS code 293392, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 293392 in UN Comtrade data was India, with 56% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Belgium, with 49% of world imports. Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
