Last updated: August 2026 dataNicotine products designed for delivery into the human body through routes other than inhalation, oral intake, or transdermal absorption — such as nasal sprays or novel delivery formats — are captured in this residual heading at 2404990000. Sweden, Denmark, and Japan are the leading US import sources, pointing to both Scandinavian nicotine product innovation and Japanese development of next-generation nicotine formats. Because the delivery mechanism for NESOI products may not fit neatly into established FDA regulatory categories, importers face heightened classification and admissibility uncertainty and should seek advance rulings from both CBP and FDA before commercial shipments begin.

Products such as nicotine nasal sprays, nicotine inhalers not designed for combustion-free inhalation in the 240412 sense, or entirely novel delivery formats (e.g., nicotine-infused dermal applicators that are not patches) may end up here when they do not fit the inhalation, oral, or transdermal definitions of 240412, 240491, or 240492. The NESOI designation means classification should be confirmed only after ruling out all the more specific headings.
Yes. Because 240499 is a catch-all, CBP officers may scrutinize the product's delivery mechanism and composition more closely to confirm it does not belong in a more specific heading. Importers should prepare detailed technical specifications, manufacturer declarations describing the intended route of nicotine delivery, and any FDA correspondence or authorization documents to support the classification and facilitate admissibility review.
