Overview
This HTS category, 9902.04.38, specifically classifies the chemical compound known as Phenmedipham (CAS No. 13684-63-4), which is scientifically identified as [3-(Methoxycarbonylamino)phenyl] N-(3-methylphenyl)carbamate. Phenmedipham is recognized for its application as a selective post-emergence herbicide, primarily used in the cultivation of sugar beets and other crops to control broadleaf weeds. Its classification within Chapter 99 signifies that it is subject to temporary legislation, modifications related to trade agreements, or additional import restrictions.
As a leaf node within the HTS database, this category does not have further subcategories. Its placement within Section XXII and Chapter 99 differentiates it from the primary goods classifications found in earlier chapters. While other chapters might classify chemicals based on their chemical composition (e.g., Chapter 29 for organic chemicals), this specific entry is reserved for temporary or restricted treatments. The parent context of HTS provides the overarching framework for customs classification, and this category exists to manage the import and export of Phenmedipham under specific, potentially time-limited, regulatory conditions.
