Overview
This HTS category, 9902.02.94, specifically covers Dimethyl malonate (CAS No. 108-59-8). It is important to note that while this substance is classified under Chapter 99, its primary classification is provided for in subheading 2917.19.70, indicating it is a malonic acid ester. This chapter, "Temporary legislation; temporary modifications proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements legislation; additional import restrictions proclaimed pursuant to section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, as amended," signifies that the import of Dimethyl malonate may be subject to specific temporary regulations or restrictions beyond its standard tariff classification.
As a leaf node within Chapter 99, this HTS code does not have further subdivisions. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes is on accurately identifying Dimethyl malonate based on its chemical identity and CAS number. Its presence within Chapter 99 signifies that its importation is governed by provisions that may override or supplement the standard tariff treatment found in earlier chapters of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. Importers should consult relevant trade agreements, temporary legislation, and proclamations issued under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act to fully understand any applicable duties, quotas, or other import requirements.
