2908.99.90.00 - Other

This HTS category, 2908.99.90.00, covers a residual group of halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivatives of phenols or phenol-alcohols that do not fit into any more specific subcategories within heading 2908. It is important to note that this "Other" classification signifies that the substance does not possess the distinct characteristics or functionalities that would place it under previously listed enumerations.

Distinguishing this category from its sibling, 2908.99.80.00, is crucial for accurate classification. The sibling category specifically pertains to products that meet the criteria outlined in additional U.S. note 3 to section VI. Therefore, if a substance is a halogenated, sulfonated, nitrated, or nitrosated derivative of a phenol or phenol-alcohol and *does not* qualify under additional U.S. note 3, it will fall into this residual "Other" category.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification within 2908.99.90.00 relies on a process of elimination, ensuring that the substance has been thoroughly reviewed against all preceding classifications within heading 2908 and its subheadings. The absence of specific defining characteristics for other classifications within this heading leads to its inclusion here.
