Summary
HS code 2912.42 covers aldehyde-alcohols, aldehyde-ethers, aldehyde-phenols and aldehydes with other oxygen function, ethylvanillin (3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde). It sits in heading 29.12 (aldehydes, whether or not with other oxygen function; cyclic polymers of aldehydes; paraformaldehyde) in chapter 29 (organic chemicals). Other goods of heading 29.12 are classified under 2912.11 (acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function, methanal (formaldehyde)), 2912.12 (acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function, ethanal (acetaldehyde)), 2912.19 (acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function, other), 2912.21 (cyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function, benzaldehyde) or 5 others. National tariff lines under 2912.42 are live on border.bot for the United States (1 line, also used by 1 other country).

How it is structured
2912.42 is a six-digit subheading. Its first two digits, 29, are the chapter; the first four, 2912, are heading 29.12; the last two, 42, identify the subheading within the heading.
Countries add their own digits after these six for their national tariff lines.
