Official text: Aldehydes, whether or not with other oxygen function; cyclic polymers of aldehydes; paraformaldehyde › Aldehyde-alcohols, aldehyde-ethers, aldehyde-phenols and aldehydes with other oxygen function › Other.

This is the “other” line of heading 2912 (aldehydes, whether or not with other oxygen function; cyclic polymers of aldehydes; paraformaldehyde). It takes goods of that heading that no more specific subheading names. These go elsewhere:

  • 291211 Acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function — Methanal (formaldehyde)
  • 291212 Acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function — Ethanal (acetaldehyde)
  • 291219 Acyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function — Other
  • 291221 Cyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function — Benzaldehyde
  • 291229 Cyclic aldehydes without other oxygen function — Other
  • 291241 Aldehyde-alcohols, aldehyde-ethers, aldehyde-phenols and aldehydes with other oxygen function — Vanillin (4-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde)
  • 291242 Aldehyde-alcohols, aldehyde-ethers, aldehyde-phenols and aldehydes with other oxygen function — Ethylvanillin (3-ethoxy-4-hydroxybenzaldehyde)
  • 291250 Cyclic polymers of aldehydes
  • 291260 Paraformaldehyde
