9902.02.80 - Triglyceryl octanoate (CAS No. 108777-93-1) (provided for in subheading 2915.90.50)

HTS 9902.02.80 specifically covers Triglyceryl octanoate, identified by CAS No. 108777-93-1. This classification is situated within Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, and import restrictions. Its inclusion here signifies a temporary or specific regulatory treatment outside of the standard goods chapters. The parenthetical note indicating it is "provided for in subheading 2915.90.50" points to the primary classification for this chemical substance under the HTS, which would typically be in the Chapter 29 section dealing with organic chemicals.

As a leaf node within Chapter 99, HTS 9902.02.80 does not have further subcategories. Its siblings at the same level within Chapter 99 would represent other distinct temporary provisions, quotas, or specific import restrictions for a variety of goods, often unrelated in their physical nature but unified by their temporary or special classification status. Therefore, its distinction from its siblings lies solely in the specific chemical compound it designates and the particular temporary legislative measure or restriction it falls under.

The primary purpose of this specific HTS code is to denote Triglyceryl octanoate for a purpose outside of its general chemical classification under Chapter 29, such as for purposes of monitoring, quota management, or applying specific import duties or restrictions as mandated by temporary legislation or trade agreements. Importers must consult the specific regulations associated with this Chapter 99 provision to understand the full implications for importation.
