Classification under heading 3005 is excluded as the wipes are not used for any specific medical, surgical, dental or veterinary purpose (see also the Harmonized System Explanatory Note to heading 3005, first paragraph). Classification under heading 3402 is excluded as the main purpose of the product is not cleaning but disinfection. The product is considered a disinfectant and is put up for retail sale as a disinfectant (see note 2 to Section VI). Consequently, the product is to be classified in CN code 3808 94 90 as a disinfectant, put up for retail sale.
