9902.02.49 - p-Anisaldehyde (4-methoxybenzaldehyde) (CAS No. 123-11-5) (provided for in subheading 2912.49.10)

This classification pertains to p-Anisaldehyde, also known as 4-methoxybenzaldehyde, with CAS Number 123-11-5. This specific aromatic aldehyde is designated for temporary legislation and special classification provisions under Chapter 99, often reflecting temporary modifications or additional import restrictions. Its presence in this chapter indicates that its tariff treatment may differ from its standard classification under Chapter 29, which is typically for organic chemicals.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings within Chapter 99 requires understanding that Chapter 99 codes are generally used for temporary measures and are not standard product categories like those found in earlier chapters of the HTS. While siblings within other chapters might represent distinct product groups (e.g., live animals), the siblings of 9902.02.49 would also be other codes within Chapter 99, each representing a unique temporary tariff or restriction. The key differentiator for 9902.02.49 is its direct reference to p-Anisaldehyde and the specific provision it falls under, often linked to Trade Agreements Legislation or Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within HTS Code 9902.02.49. Classification at this level is final for p-Anisaldehyde under these temporary provisions. Any importer or exporter dealing with this product must refer to the specific proclamations or legislation associated with this code to determine applicable duties, restrictions, or reporting requirements. The reference to subheading 2912.49.10 indicates the base classification from which this temporary measure originates, highlighting that while its primary classification is as an organic chemical, specific trade policies have led to its inclusion in this temporary provisions chapter.
