It sits in heading 29.05 (acyclic alcohols and their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives) in chapter 29 (organic chemicals). Other goods of heading 29.05 are classified under 2905.11 (saturated monohydric alcohols, methanol (methyl alcohol)), 2905.12 (saturated monohydric alcohols, propan-1-ol (propyl alcohol) and propan-2-ol (isopropyl alcohol)), 2905.13 (saturated monohydric alcohols, butan-1-ol (n-butyl alcohol)), 2905.14 (saturated monohydric alcohols, other butanols) or 15 others. National tariff lines under 2905.49 are live on border.bot for the United States (5 lines, also used by 1 other country).",
