9902.04.68 - 2,6-Dibromo-4-cyanophenyl heptanoate (Bromoxynil heptanoate) (CAS No. 56634-95-8) (provided for in subheading 2926.90.25)

This HTS category, 9902.04.68, specifically addresses the importation of 2,6-Dibromo-4-cyanophenyl heptanoate, also known by its common name Bromoxynil heptanoate (CAS No. 56634-95-8). This designation falls under Section XXII, which covers temporary legislation and special classification provisions, including those related to trade agreements and agricultural import restrictions. Its inclusion here indicates a specific, likely temporary, regulatory treatment for this particular chemical compound, which is also provided for under subheading 2926.90.25, a more general classification for organic compounds containing other acyclic nitrogen groups.

The primary purpose of this special classification provision is to apply specific import restrictions or conditions, as proclaimed under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act or similar trade legislation, to Bromoxynil heptanoate. Unlike the broader chapters of the HTS that classify goods based on their intrinsic material composition and primary use (such as Chapter 29 for organic chemicals), Chapter 99 is reserved for goods subject to special, often time-limited, import regulations. Therefore, an entry under 9902.04.68 signifies that while the chemical itself is classified as an organic nitrile, its importation is governed by distinct, supplementary trade policies.

As a leaf node within Chapter 99, this category does not have further subdivisions. The specific details regarding the nature of the temporary legislation or additional import restrictions for Bromoxynil heptanoate are typically found by consulting the statutory references cited within Chapter 99 and its accompanying notes, rather than through further hierarchical breakdown of the HTS code itself. Importers must refer to the governing legislation and proclamations to understand the full scope of requirements for this product.
