  • Registered under EU REACH, so EU importers can buy it under an existing registration.
  • Active on the US TSCA Inventory, so it can be imported into the US without a new-chemical notice.
  • Listed on the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals (AICIS), so it can be introduced into Australia as an existing industrial chemical.
  • EU: harmonised classification as a reproductive toxicant category 1B (CLP Annex VI, index 617-024-00-8). It may not be sold to the general public in the EU as such or in mixtures above the limit (REACH Annex XVII, entries 28-30), and its use at work must be minimised.

  • India splits subheading 2915 90 into 11 lines: 2915 90 10 (Other › Acetyl chloride); 2915 90 40 (Other › Pivaloyl chloride); 2915 90 50 (Other › N-valeryl chloride); 2915 90 60 (Other › N-octanoyl chloride); 2915 90 70 (Other › Neodecanoyl chloride); 2915 90 91 (Other › Hexoic acid (caproic acid)); and 5 more.
  • Basic customs duty 7.5% on every one of them; with social welfare surcharge and IGST 18% that makes about 27.73%.
  • Lines that name a chemical are for that chemical; one that no line names goes under "Other" (2915 90 99).
