Overview
HTS 9902.03.47 pertains to Bis(2-ethylhexyl) carbonate, also known as diethylhexyl carbonate, and is identified by CAS No. 14858-73-2. This classification falls under Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation, temporary modifications proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements legislation, and additional import restrictions proclaimed pursuant to Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Therefore, goods classified under this code are subject to specific, often time-limited, trade provisions beyond the standard HTS framework.
This category is distinct from the general product classifications found in Chapters 1 through 98. While the description indicates that Bis(2-ethylhexyl) carbonate is "provided for in subheading 2920.90.51," its presence in Chapter 99 signifies that it is currently subject to special import rules or restrictions. Unlike broad categories such as "Live horses" (0101) or "Live bovine animals" (0102), this HTS code targets a specific chemical compound with unique regulatory treatment under U.S. trade law.
As a leaf node, HTS 9902.03.47 does not have further subdivisions. Classification within this code is definitive for Bis(2-ethylhexyl) carbonate when it is subject to the temporary measures or restrictions stipulated in Chapter 99. Importers must therefore consult not only this specific HTS code but also any associated proclamations, directives, or regulations referenced within Chapter 99 to ensure compliance.
