Overview
HTS code 3102.80.00.00 specifically covers mixtures of urea and ammonium nitrate when presented in an aqueous or ammoniacal solution. These products are formulated as liquid fertilizers, designed for direct application or further dilution for agricultural use. The key defining characteristic is the combination of urea and ammonium nitrate in a liquid form, typically characterized by their solubility in water or ammonia.
This classification is distinct from its sibling categories by its precise composition and physical state. For instance, it differs from 3102.10.00, which is solely urea (whether solid or in solution), and 3102.30.00.00, which is exclusively ammonium nitrate (also whether solid or in solution). It also differentiates itself from 3102.40.00.00 by not including solid inorganic non-fertilizing diluents like calcium carbonate, and from 3102.50.00.00, which pertains to sodium nitrate. The presence of both urea and ammonium nitrate in a liquid solution is the critical factor for classification under this heading.
As a leaf node, HTS 3102.80.00.00 has no further subcategories. Therefore, classification decisions within this specific code will primarily rely on confirming that the imported or exported product is indeed a mixture of urea and ammonium nitrate in an aqueous or ammoniacal solution, meeting the defined compositional and physical characteristics. Practical considerations may include verifying the concentration of the active ingredients and the absence of other significant components not accounted for in the description.
