Sourcing this category from India
HS 29.03 covers Halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons. At the six-digit line it breaks down further — starting with halogenated derivatives of aromatic hydrocarbons — into 42 duty lines shown below. Organic chemicals are a major Indian export, anchored by the country's strength in bulk drugs and intermediates. India exported $380.1M under this code worldwide in 2024, about 1.8% of all Chapter 29 exports, ranking #14 of 42 lines in its chapter (UN Comtrade).
How to read this code
29.03 is the four-digit HS heading for halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons. To clear customs your destination country extends it to a full 8–10 digit code and assigns the duty rate. India's preferential trade agreements (UAE CEPA, Australia ECTA, and others) can reduce or zero out that duty on many chemicals & allied industries lines — check our import guides for your market.
