HS Code 2929Nitrogen-function compounds, n.e.c. in chapter 29

2 six-digit codes · Heading 29 of 42 in Chapter 29 · World Customs Organization Harmonized System

HS code 2929 is where a nitrogen compound goes when no other nitrogen heading describes it. Use this page to tell its two codes apart and to check your own product.

The WCO writes heading 2929 as a residual bucket: goods of Chapter 29that answer to “Nitrogen-function compounds, n.e.c. in chapter 29” and that no more specific heading in the chapter already claims. It still carries 2 six-digit codes, 292910 through 292990, so “other” is not the end of the classification here. The heading is number 29 of 42 in Chapter 29, Organic chemicals, which runs to 410 six-digit codes in all.

Six-digit codes under heading 2929

HS CodeImport–export description
292910Nitrogen-function compounds; n.e.c. in chapter 29, isocyanates
292990Nitrogen-function compounds; n.e.c. in chapter 29, excluding isocyanates

What HS code 2929 covers

The letters n.e.c. mean not elsewhere classified. The goods in this heading have a nitrogen group in their structure. They do not match a more exact heading. You may also see them called compounds with other nitrogen function.

Traders often search for HSN code 2929 or HTS code 2929. These are national versions of the Harmonized System, which the WCO maintains. The first six digits are the same everywhere, so the same logic applies. Customs classification starts with what the product is and how it is built, not with its trade name.

HS 292910 vs 292990: isocyanates and other nitrogen-function compounds

The heading splits on one question: is the product an isocyanate?

The code you choose should match the product's chemical identity, as shown on its data sheet or in its name.

  • 292910 is for isocyanates.
  • 292990 is for every other compound in the heading, which means everything except isocyanates.

How 2929 differs from other nitrogen headings in Chapter 29

Think of this heading as the last stop. Check the specific nitrogen headings first. If one of them describes your product, use it.

Each of these headings is built around its own nitrogen group:

  • 2921: amine-function compounds
  • 2922: oxygen-function amino-compounds
  • 2924: carboxyamide-function compounds
  • 2925: carboxyimide and imine-function compounds
  • 2926: nitrile-function compounds
  • 2927: diazo-, azo- or azoxy-compounds
  • 2928: organic derivatives of hydrazine or of hydroxylamine

Rings, sulphur and other edge cases

If the nitrogen atom sits inside a ring, read heading 2933 for nitrogen heterocyclic compounds before you settle here. If the compound is built around sulphur, look at heading 2930. Heading 2942 catches organic compounds that fit nowhere else in the chapter.

Still unsure? Run the product through the HS code classifier, then compare the result with the heading texts above.

Find buyers and suppliers of isocyanates (292910)

Many people want to know who imports and exports isocyanates under 292910. Check 292910 and 292990 on their own, because they describe different goods. Mixing them up gives you the wrong list of companies.

Straight answers

HS Code 2929: common questions

What does heading 2929 represent?

It is the heading for nitrogen-function compounds that are not named in a more specific heading of Chapter 29. It is used only when no other nitrogen heading fits.

What is HS code 292910?

292910 is the subheading for isocyanates. Use it when the product is an isocyanate.

What is HS code 292990?

292990 covers the other nitrogen-function compounds in this heading, excluding isocyanates.

What is the difference between HS 292910 and 292990?

The split is whether the product is an isocyanate. Isocyanates go to 292910 and everything else in the heading goes to 292990.

When should a nitrogen compound go under 2929 instead of 2921-2928?

Only when none of the headings 2921 to 2928 describes it. Those headings each name a specific nitrogen group, while 2929 is the fallback.
