HS Code 2814Ammonia; anhydrous or in aqueous solution
2 six-digit codes · Heading 14 of 50 in Chapter 28 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System
It covers anhydrous ammonia and ammonia in aqueous solution, each with its own six-digit code.
Heading 2814 splits exactly two ways. Goods answering to “Ammonia; anhydrous or in aqueous solution” classify either at 281410 or at 281420, and the wording in the table below is the whole of what separates them. The heading is number 14 of 50 in Chapter 28, Inorganic chemicals; organic and inorganic compounds of precious metals; of rare earth metals, of radio-active elements and of isotopes, which runs to 180 six-digit codes in all.
What HS code 2814 covers
Heading 2814 belongs to the WCO Harmonized System. This is the shared list of product names and numbers that customs offices use around the world. The heading is for one chemical, ammonia, in two forms. One form has no water in it. The other is ammonia mixed into water.
People look for this heading in different ways. Some type ammonia HS code. Some type HSN code 2814. Others search for sub chapter 2814. All of these lead to the same four-digit heading in Chapter 28 inorganic chemicals.
The heading has two parts below it. Every ammonia shipment is filed under one of them. That is why the next section matters.
Difference between 281410 and 281420
The only thing that separates the two codes is water. Ask one question: is the ammonia dissolved in water? If the answer is no, the goods go under the first code. If the answer is yes, they go under the second code.
This is the short guide:
- 281410 anhydrous ammonia: ammonia with no water in it.
- 281420 aqueous ammonia: ammonia in aqueous solution, often called ammonia solution.
- Both codes sit under heading 2814, so a search on the heading shows both.
What is the HSN code for ammonia?
HSN is the name some countries use for the same Harmonized System numbers. The first six digits match the WCO list. So the HSN code for ammonia starts with 2814, and the full six-digit code is 281410 or 281420.
Many countries add more digits after the sixth. Those extra digits are set by each country, not by the WCO. If you are unsure which code fits your goods, try the HS code classifier before you file or search.
Related headings in Chapter 28
Ammonia is easy to mix up with other chemicals that have similar names. A few nearby headings are worth knowing. Each one is a different product with its own heading.
Heading 2815 is sodium hydroxide, also called caustic soda, and potassium hydroxide. Heading 2834 is nitrites and nitrates. Heading 2847 is hydrogen peroxide.
Heading 2836 needs extra care. It covers carbonates, and its description names commercial ammonium carbonate containing ammonium carbamate. The word ammonium in the name does not put it under 2814. Pure ammonia stays here; that carbonate goes to 2836.
