Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.02.10, pertains to specific temporary modifications and restrictions related to the importation of 16-Methyl-1-heptadecanol, also known as Isostearyl alcohol. These provisions, found within Chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, are enacted under temporary legislation, trade agreement proclamations, or Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. The entry for Isostearyl alcohol here signifies that its importation is subject to special rules beyond its standard classification, which is provided for under subheading 2905.19.90.
Unlike the primary HTS categories for general goods, such as live animals (e.g., Chapter 01), this Chapter 99 provision does not define a broad class of merchandise. Instead, it identifies specific items that are subject to unique import regulations. Therefore, it does not have direct "sibling" classifications in the typical sense of goods-based categories. Its distinction lies in its nature as a regulatory measure rather than a product classification.
As this is a leaf node, there are no subcategories to introduce. The classification 9902.02.10 represents a definitive point within the Special Classification Provisions, indicating that 16-Methyl-1-heptadecanol (Isostearyl alcohol) is subject to specific, temporary trade regulations as detailed by the referenced subheading and governing legislation. Importers must consult the full text of these provisions for precise details on import requirements.
