Use this page to pick the right subheading and to find who buys and sells these chemicals.

Goods answering to “Nitrile-function compounds” split into 5 six-digit codes, 292610 through 292690. Each one carries its own customs description, and the exact wording below is what a classification has to match. The heading is number 26 of 42 in Chapter 29, Organic chemicals, which runs to 410 six-digit codes in all.

What HS code 2926 covers

Heading 2926 is the home of nitrile-function compounds, often just called nitriles. A nitrile is an organic molecule with a cyano group, which is a carbon atom joined to a nitrogen atom by a triple bond. If the cyano group is what defines the chemical, start your search here.

Some countries call it an HSN code and others an HTS code. The core code comes from the World Customs Organization system, so it reads the same in most places.

Most codes under this heading name one product. The last one is a catch-all. Together they cover acrylonitrile, dicyandiamide, fenproporex, a methadone intermediate and alpha-phenylacetoacetonitrile.

How to choose the right 2926 subheading

Read the named codes first. Use the catch-all only when no named code fits your product.

  • 292610 is acrylonitrile. It is the answer to the common question, what is the HS code for acrylonitrile.
  • 292620 is 1-cyanoguanidine, better known as dicyandiamide. Buyers who ask for the HS code for dicyandiamide land here.
  • 292630 is fenproporex and its salts, plus the methadone intermediate named in the customs text.
  • 292640 is alpha-phenylacetoacetonitrile.
  • 292690 is for any other nitrile-function compound not named elsewhere in heading 2926. The short form n.e.c. means not elsewhere classified.

How 2926 differs from nearby nitrogen headings

Chapter 29 has many headings for compounds that contain nitrogen. The question to ask is which chemical group defines your product. Here is how the close neighbours split:

  • 2921 covers amine-function compounds.
  • 2925 covers carboxyimide-function compounds and imine-function compounds.
  • 2929 covers nitrogen-function compounds that are not named elsewhere in the chapter.

Classification tips for nitriles and cyanide compounds

If the cyano group defines the molecule, think 2926. If the molecule has a nitrogen group that fits no named heading, 2929 is the fallback. A named heading always wins over a catch-all, so 2929 is not the place for a true nitrile.

People also ask for the HSN code for cyanide compounds. Organic nitriles belong in heading 2926. Simple inorganic cyanides are usually classified in the inorganic chemicals chapters instead. Always match the exact customs wording, because a close guess can lead to a wrong code.

If you are not sure, test your product in the HS code classifier before you file.

HS 2926 import and export data: who buys and supplies nitrile compounds

Customs filings show who imports nitrile compounds and who ships them. That helps if you want to import nitrile-function compounds from China or any other origin, or if you sell them and need new customers.

Straight answers

HS Code 2926: common questions

What is HS code 2926?

It splits into smaller codes for named products and one catch-all.

What is the HS code for acrylonitrile?

Acrylonitrile is classified under 292610. The customs text reads nitrile-function compounds; acrylonitrile.

What is the HS code for dicyandiamide?

Dicyandiamide, also called 1-cyanoguanidine, is classified under 292620.

Which code covers nitrile compounds not named elsewhere?

Use 292690. It is the residual code for nitrile-function compounds that no other code in heading 2926 names.

How is HS 2926 different from 2929?

Heading 2926 is for nitrile-function compounds, where the cyano group defines the product. Heading 2929 is a catch-all for other nitrogen-function compounds in Chapter 29.

Who imports nitrile compounds?

Importers appear in customs records filed under these codes. Search HS 2926 on EximDataX to see the live records, or start from the buyer data page.
