Overview
This HTS category, 9902.04.39, specifically addresses the import of 1-Naphthylenyl methylcarbamate, more commonly known as Carbaryl. Carbaryl is a carbamate insecticide used to control a wide range of insect pests on agricultural crops, as well as on residential lawns, ornamentals, and in some public health applications. Its inclusion under Chapter 99 signifies that it is subject to temporary legislation, temporary modifications, or additional import restrictions proclaimed pursuant to specific trade agreements or Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act.
Distinguishing this specific provision from other potential classifications, it is crucial to note that while Carbaryl falls under the broader chemical classification of insecticides, this 9902 code indicates a special, likely temporary, regulatory status. Other HTS codes might cover the chemical itself under its primary chemical grouping (e.g., subheading 2924.29.47 as indicated in the description), but this entry highlights specific import considerations beyond standard chemical tariffs, potentially related to agricultural protection or environmental regulations.
As a leaf node within the HTS, 9902.04.39 does not have further subdivisions. Classification under this code is definitive for Carbaryl when imported under the specified temporary legislative provisions. Importers must therefore consult the full text of the relevant proclamations and trade agreements to understand the precise conditions, limitations, or requirements associated with importing Carbaryl under this particular HTS classification.
