Subheading 4 of 6 in heading 2935
N-Ethyl perfluorooctane sulfonamide (N-EtFOSA) is a PFAS-family compound classified under tariff line 2935200000, structurally distinguished from its N-methyl counterpart by the ethyl group on the sulfonamide nitrogen. Like other perfluorooctane sulfonamide derivatives, it falls within EPA's TSCA regulatory framework for PFOS-related substances, and importers must assess Significant New Use Rule applicability prior to entry. China is the sole documented leading supplier to the US market for this compound.

Yes. EPA's TSCA Significant New Use Rules cover PFOS-related compounds including N-EtFOSA. Importers must evaluate whether their intended use constitutes a 'significant new use' requiring advance EPA notification. Additionally, imports from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs; current applicability should be confirmed with a licensed customs broker.
A certificate of analysis confirming the molecular structure — specifically the ethyl (rather than methyl or hydroxyethyl) substituent on the nitrogen — is essential to distinguish this compound from the adjacent HTS headings 293510, 293530, and 293540. Customs may request this documentation to verify classification at the 10-digit level.
