Summary
HS code 2917.37 covers aromatic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, dimethyl terephthalate. It sits in heading 29.17 (polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides and peroxyacids; their halogenated, sulphonated, nitrated or nitrosated derivatives) in chapter 29 (organic chemicals). Other goods of heading 29.17 are classified under 2917.11 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, oxalic acid, its salts and esters), 2917.12 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, adipic acid, its salts and esters), 2917.13 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, their salts and esters), 2917.14 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, maleic anhydride) or 8 others. National tariff lines under 2917.37 are live on border.bot for the United States (1 line, also used by 1 other country).
What this code covers
HS code 2917.37 covers aromatic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, dimethyl terephthalate.
The legal text of the subheading is “Aromatic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives: Dimethyl terephthalate”, read under “Aromatic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives”, in HS2022.
What it doesn’t cover
Other goods of heading 29.17 are classified under 2917.11 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, oxalic acid, its salts and esters), 2917.12 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, adipic acid, its salts and esters), 2917.13 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, azelaic acid, sebacic acid, their salts and esters), 2917.14 (acyclic polycarboxylic acids, their anhydrides, halides, peroxides, peroxyacids and their derivatives, maleic anhydride) or 8 others.

How it is structured
2917.37 is a six-digit subheading. Its first two digits, 29, are the chapter; the first four, 2917, are heading 29.17; the last two, 37, identify the subheading within the heading.
Countries add their own digits after these six for their national tariff lines.
