HS code · 6-digit subheading
HS Code 3827.62 – Mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane; containing other hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) but not containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs); other mixtures, not included in the subheading above,
HS code 3827.62 is the 6-digit subheading for mixtures containing halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane or propane, containing other hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) but not containing chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) or hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), other mixtures, not included in the subheading above,. It is used for R-410A, R-404A, R-507, R-407C and R-422D.
What HS 3827.62 covers
This HS code is for mixtures of halogenated derivatives of methane, ethane, or propane containing hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), but not CFCs or HCFCs, where pentafluoroethane (HFC-125) makes up 55% or more by mass. HFC-125 is a vital component in many high-pressure, high-efficiency HFC refrigerant blends, most notably R-410A, which is extensively used in residential and commercial air conditioning systems. The international trade of these mixtures is significant due to the widespread adoption of such systems globally. However, like other HFCs, HFC-125 is subject to a global phase-down under the Kigali Amendment due to its high global warming potential, prompting a shift towards refrigerants with lower environmental impact.

Codes often confused with 3827.62
Common mistake. Can be confused with other HFC mixtures (e.g., 382761, 382763) if the specific HFC-125 content threshold is not met or verified. Pure HFC-125 (2903.39) should not be classified here.
Top exporters and importers of HS code 382762, 2025
In 2025, the largest exporter of HS code 382762 in UN Comtrade data was China, with 60% of world exports; the largest importer in UN Comtrade data was Germany, with 29% of world imports.

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).

What are common misclassifications for HS code 382762?
Can be confused with other HFC mixtures (e.g., 382761, 382763) if the specific HFC-125 content threshold is not met or verified. Pure HFC-125 (2903.39) should not be classified here.
Which countries are the top exporters of goods under HS code 382762?
In 2025, the top exporters of HS code 382762 in UN Comtrade data were China ($4.9M, 60% of world exports), Germany ($1.0M) and the United States ($837K). World exports came to about $8.1M, adding countries' reported figures and partner-based estimates for those that did not report (UN Comtrade data). Countries that did not report 2025 data are estimated from partner records, which can understate them.
Which countries are the top importers of goods under HS code 382762?
In 2025, the top importers of HS code 382762 in UN Comtrade data were Germany ($4.3M, 29% of world imports), the United States ($3.0M) and Austria ($845K). World imports came to about $15M, adding countries' reported figures and partner-based estimates for those that did not report (UN Comtrade data). Mexico reports $159M of its heading 3827 imports without product detail (confidential), so it may also belong among the top importers.
How is HS code 382762 structured?
HS code 382762 is a 6-digit subheading under the Harmonized System. The first 2 digits (38) identify the chapter, digits 3-4 (27) identify the heading, and digits 5-6 (62) specify the subheading. This code is standardized globally by the World Customs Organization.
What is the Brazil NCM code for HS code 382762?
In Brazil, HS code 382762 is NCM 3827.62.00. The last two digits are 00 because Brazil does not split this HS code further.
