Overview
This HTS category, 9902.03.69, specifically covers the chemical compound o-chloro-p-toluidine, also known as 3-chloro-4-methylaniline (CAS No. 95-74-9). While its primary classification resides within Chapter 29 as a specific organic chemical (subheading 2921.43.90), this entry within Chapter 99 signifies a temporary legislative provision, likely an additional import restriction or modification. These Chapter 99 provisions are enacted under specific trade agreements or statutory authority, such as Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act, and may impose special duties, quotas, or other conditions on the importation of the specified goods beyond their standard classification.
As a leaf node within Chapter 99, this category does not have further subdivisions. Its purpose is to isolate and control the importation of this particular chemical, o-chloro-p-toluidine, irrespective of its underlying chemical classification in Chapter 29. Therefore, any importer dealing with o-chloro-p-toluidine must not only consider its standard tariff classification but also any specific requirements or limitations imposed by this Chapter 99 provision, which are designed to address policy objectives beyond general customs duties.
