Overview
HTS Code 9902.01.34 specifically covers Chromium(III) oxide (CAS No. 1308-38-9). This classification falls under Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation, modifications proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements, and additional import restrictions. Importantly, the goods classified here are *provided for* in subheading 2819.90.00, indicating they are otherwise classifiable under the standard HTS system but are subject to special temporary measures under Chapter 99.
This specific HTS code is distinct from the numerous "sibling" categories that begin with numerical codes like 0101 (Live horses) or 2819 (Chromium oxides and hydroxides). While the description directs us to the broader category of chromium oxides and hydroxides under 2819.90.00, the 9902.01.34 code signifies a unique, temporary tariff or restriction applied to Chromium(III) oxide, independent of its general chemical classification.
As this node is a leaf node within the HTS structure, it does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes under 9902.01.34 remains on accurately identifying the imported product as Chromium(III) oxide and adhering to the specific temporary provisions, modifications, or restrictions indicated by this code, which are separate from the standard HTS classification rules found in earlier chapters.
