Overview
This HTS classification, 2930.90.42, specifically covers the organo-phosphorus insecticides known as O,O-Dimethyl-S-methyl carbamoyl- methyl phosphorodithioate and Malathion. These are distinct chemical compounds used primarily for their pesticidal properties, targeting a range of agricultural and public health pests. Their classification here is based on their specific chemical structure as organo-sulfur compounds, falling under the broader category of other pesticides.
Within the "Pesticides: Other" group, this subcategory is distinguished from its sibling, 2930.90.43 (Other), by the precise identification of the active pesticidal ingredients. While 2930.90.43 would encompass other pesticide compounds not specifically listed here, 2930.90.42 is dedicated to the two named organo-phosphates. This specificity ensures accurate duty assessment and trade statistics for these commonly used agricultural chemicals.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS classification, there are no further subcategories beneath 2930.90.42.00. Classification at this level is definitive for the specified compounds. Import and export professionals should therefore ensure that the goods being declared precisely match the chemical identity of O,O-Dimethyl-S-methyl carbamoyl- methyl phosphorodithioate or Malathion to correctly utilize this code.
