3808.69 - Other:

This HTS category, 3808.69, encompasses "Other" disinfectants and similar products, put up in forms or packings for retail sale or as preparations or articles, specifically for goods that do not meet the weight criteria of its sibling subheadings. It falls under the broader classification of insecticides, rodenticides, fungicides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators, distinguishing itself by its exclusion from specific net weight packaging categories.

Unlike subheadings 3808.61 and 3808.62, which specify goods in packings not exceeding 300g and between 300g and 7.5kg respectively, this category is for retail-packaged or prepared disinfectants and similar products falling outside these defined weight ranges. The "Other" designation signifies that it serves as a residual category for products that fit the general description of the parent heading but are not precisely captured by the more narrowly defined weight-based siblings.

The subcategories within 3808.69 further refine this classification based on the chemical composition of the pesticide. Subheading 3808.69.10.00 specifically covers such products containing any aromatic or modified aromatic pesticide, while 3808.69.50.00 acts as a further residual category for all other products within 3808.69 that do not contain aromatic or modified aromatic pesticides. This structure allows for detailed categorization based on both packaging size (at the sibling level) and the active chemical ingredient (at the child level).
