Sourcing this category from India

HS 29.21 covers Amine-function compounds. At the six-digit line it separates amine-function compounds and amine-function-compounds, among others — each a distinct duty line shown below.

India exported $923.4M under this code worldwide in 2024, about 4.5% of all Chapter 29 exports, ranking #5 of 42 lines in its chapter (UN Comtrade).

How to read this code

29.21 is the four-digit HS heading for amine-function compounds. 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.
