Overview
This HTS code, 9902.04.45, designates a specific temporary import provision for Mandipropamid (CAS No. 374726-62-2). Mandipropamid is an agricultural fungicide belonging to the chemical class of mandelamides. Its classification within Chapter 99 signifies that it is subject to temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, or additional import restrictions as proclaimed under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. This provision is applicable when this chemical compound is intended for use in specific agricultural applications as outlined by the relevant proclamations.
Unlike the primary product categories found in Chapters 1-97 of the HTS, which classify goods based on their inherent composition and primary use, Chapter 99 codes represent temporary measures. Therefore, this code is not comparable to sibling categories such as live animals (e.g., 0101-0105). Instead, its relevance lies within the context of regulatory controls and specific trade policies that may alter the standard tariff treatment or import requirements for this particular chemical.
As this classification represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories for Mandipropamid under this specific HTS code. The provision itself is the most granular level of classification for this particular temporary measure. Classification under 9902.04.45 is contingent upon meeting the specific criteria and conditions stipulated in the proclamation that established this temporary provision, which would typically relate to its intended agricultural use or the trade agreement under which it is implemented.
