Overview
This HTS category, 9902.02.76, specifically covers Ethyl chloroacetate, identified by CAS Number 105-39-5. While its primary classification falls under subheading 2915.40.50, its inclusion in Chapter 99 signifies a temporary legislative provision or modification. This chapter is reserved for temporary measures, including those enacted under trade agreements or specific import restrictions. Therefore, goods classified here are subject to special regulatory treatment beyond their standard HTS categorization.
As a leaf node within Chapter 99, this category does not have further subcategories. Its purpose is to isolate and potentially modify the duty or import requirements for Ethyl chloroacetate due to specific, temporary policy reasons. Unlike sibling categories within the broader HTS structure which classify distinct classes of goods (e.g., live animals, minerals, textiles), this entry's significance lies in its departure from standard tariff treatment, indicating a special administrative status.
The classification of Ethyl chloroacetate under 9902.02.76 implies that importers must consult not only the standard duty rates associated with its core classification but also any specific directives, quotas, or prohibitions detailed within Chapter 99. This ensures compliance with temporary trade policies that may affect its entry into the country.
