9902.04.82 - 3,4-Difluorobenzonitrile (CAS No. 64248-62-0) (provided for in subheading 2926.90.48)

HTS Code 9902.04.82 specifically classifies 3,4-Difluorobenzonitrile, identified by CAS No. 64248-62-0. This chemical compound falls under the broader scope of Chapter 99, which encompasses temporary legislation and modifications to the Harmonized Tariff Schedule. Its inclusion in this chapter indicates that its tariff treatment is subject to specific, often time-limited, proclamations or legislative actions, rather than being a permanent classification within the standard chapters of the HTS.

As a leaf node within the HTS database, 9902.04.82 does not have further subcategories. Therefore, its classification is definitive for the specified chemical. It is important to note that this HTS code is provided for in subheading 2926.90.48, which covers other nitriles. The distinction here lies in the specific nature of 3,4-Difluorobenzonitrile and its potential classification under a temporary provision, rather than its permanent placement under the chemical chapter. This highlights the dynamic nature of tariff schedules, where specific goods can be temporarily managed under Chapter 99 for various policy reasons, such as trade agreements or import restrictions.
