HS Code 2825 — Hydrazine, Hydroxylamine, and Other Metal Oxides

This 'basket' code covers several important inorganic chemicals not elsewhere specified. It includes hydrazine and hydroxylamine (used in rocket fuel and lab reagents), as well as oxides of molybdenum, tin, copper, and tungsten. These chemicals are staples in metal refining and chemical catalysts.

What's included

  • Hydrazine and its salts
  • Hydroxylamine
  • Molybdenum oxides
  • Tin oxides
  • Copper oxides

What's excluded

  • Antimony oxides → use 282580 (Specific subheadings exist within this 4-digit code for antimony.)

Common examples

  • Hydrazine hydrate solution
  • Molybdenum trioxide
  • Tin dioxide for ceramic glaze
  • Cupric oxide for electronics

Frequently asked questions

Are there export controls on hydrazine?

Yes, hydrazine is often subject to dual-use export controls because it is a precursor for rocket propellant.

Trade & shipping notes

  • Typical duty range: 0% - 5.5%
  • Documentation: Check for End-Use Certificates (EUC) for hydrazine derivatives.
  • Typical shipping mode: FCL
  • Top exporters: China, USA, Chile
  • Top importers: Japan, Germany, Netherlands

Key takeaway

This is a diverse heading; ensure you identify the specific metal oxide to determine if dual-use licenses apply.
