Core Classification: By Application Scenario| Application Scenario | Core Classification | Classification Basis & Industrial Labeling |
| Agricultural fertilization / Agricultural materials circulation | N-P binary compound fertilizer (high-concentration water-soluble type) | 1. Its core function is to provide two primary macronutrients, nitrogen (≥17%) and phosphorus (P₂O₅≥44%), for crops, fully complying with the definition of compound fertilizer (containing two or more plant nutrient elements).2. Uniformly labeled in the agricultural field as high-concentration N-P compound fertilizer / water-soluble N-P fertilizer, belonging to the category of agricultural chemicals/chemical fertilizers.3. It is a high-efficiency N-P fertilizer exclusively for alkaline soils, which can be directly used as base or top dressing, and also as a raw material for compound water-soluble fertilizers. |
| Industrial production / Feed additive industry | Fine chemical product | 1. Feed additive: Classified as feed chemical additive / mineral nutrient supplement, it provides nitrogen and phosphorus nutrition for ruminants with higher safety than urea, belonging to fine raw materials for the feed industry.2. Industrial use: Classified as inorganic fine chemical (N-P composite salt), used as a flame retardant, metal surface treatment agent, industrial cleaning agent, fermentation nutrient and phosphoric acid purification aid, serving as a functional chemical raw material.3. No fertilization function in this scenario, with the core value as an industrial raw material for chemical production. |
Supplementary Definition Details (Avoid Classification Confusion)
1.Exclusive Characteristics as a Compound Fertilizer (Agricultural Scenario)
- A simple binary compound fertilizer: Contains only nitrogen and phosphorus without potassium, distinguished from NPK ternary compound fertilizers, and is a typical variety of N-P binary compound fertilizers.
- Classified as a water-soluble compound fertilizer: Highly soluble in water with a clear aqueous solution, applicable for drip irrigation, fertigation and foliar spraying, meeting the core indicators of water-soluble fertilizers.
- Key labeling words in agricultural materials: UP17-44 Urea Phosphate Compound Fertilizer, High-concentration Water-soluble N-P Fertilizer, N-P Fertilizer for Alkaline Soils.
2.Exclusive Characteristics as a Chemical Product (Industrial/Feed Scenario)
Its chemical essence is a
complex salt of urea and phosphoric acid, belonging to
inorganic composite salt fine chemicals (no organic carbon-based structure), classified as an inorganic chemical product.
- Industrial/feed grades have stricter requirements for purity, impurity content and water solubility (e.g., feed grade needs to control heavy metals and fluoride ion content), belonging to fine chemical raw materials, which is different from the nutrient index orientation of agricultural grade compound fertilizers.
Key for Foreign Trade Customs Declaration: Declare by Application, Corresponding HS Codes for Different Attributes
This is the core application of classification in actual operation, directly determining customs classification and declaration requirements:
For agricultural compound fertilizer: Declare as N-P compound fertilizer, HS Code: 31056000, belonging to agricultural chemicals/chemical fertilizers, declared as general agricultural cargo.
For feed additive: Declare as feed nutrient supplement (N-P supplement), HS Code: 23099090, belonging to the category of feed chemical products.
For industrial use: Declare as Urea Phosphate (fine chemical raw material), HS Code: 28359090 (inorganic composite salt), belonging to the category of inorganic fine chemicals.
One-sentence Summary (For Foreign Trade/Industrial Labeling)
Urea Phosphate UP17-44 is an inorganic fine chemical (N-P composite salt) in its chemical essence; it is classified as a high-concentration water-soluble N-P binary compound fertilizer in agricultural applications, and as a fine chemical raw material/feed additive in industrial/feed applications. Its final category is determined by the actual application scenario.
