3808.92.28.00 - Other 🖩

This HTS category, 3808.92.28.00, encompasses a broad range of fungicidal preparations that do not fall into the specific subcategories of fungicides listed under the sibling category 3808.92.24.00. Specifically, this classification applies to fungicides that are characterized by the presence of chemical compounds belonging to the thioamide, thiocarbamate, dithiocarbamate, thiuram, or isothiocyanate families. These active ingredients are the defining feature for goods classified here, indicating their fungicidal properties are derived from these sulfur-containing organic functional groups.

The distinction between this category and its sibling, 3808.92.24.00, lies in the specific active fungicidal ingredients. While 3808.92.24.00 enumerates specific, widely used compounds such as Maneb, Zineb, Mancozeb, and Metiram, this category covers all other fungicides where the active fungicidal agent is a thioamide, thiocarbamate, dithiocarbamate, thiuram, or isothiocyanate, but is not one of the explicitly named compounds. This ensures that fungicides with potent activity derived from these chemical structures are correctly classified, even if they are less common or proprietary formulations.

As this is a leaf node in the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 3808.92.28.00 is dependent on confirming the presence of a fungicidal agent from the specified chemical families and ensuring that the product is not otherwise classifiable under a more specific heading or subheading within the broader scope of disinfectants and similar products, put up in forms or packings for retail sale or as preparations or articles.
