Overview
This HTS category, 9902.04.95, is a specific temporary provision for 4-Chlorophenyl isocyanate, identified by CAS Number 104-12-1. While the material itself is classified under Chapter 29 (Organic Chemicals), specifically subheading 2929.10.80, this Chapter 99 code designates it for temporary treatment, likely due to trade agreements, legislation, or import restrictions. The purpose of this classification is to apply specific tariff rates or import conditions to this particular chemical compound when it is imported.
Unlike the primary product categories found in earlier chapters of the HTS, such as live animals or agricultural products, Chapter 99 codes represent special provisions that overlay or modify the standard classifications. Therefore, this category does not directly compete with the broad classifications of live animals or manufactured goods. Its distinction lies in its role as a temporary modifier for a chemical product whose primary classification resides elsewhere in the tariff schedule.
As a leaf node, HTS code 9902.04.95 has no further subcategories. This signifies that any import of 4-Chlorophenyl isocyanate falling under this specific temporary provision will be directly classified at this level, without further breakdown into more granular subdivisions. The classification hinges entirely on the identity of the imported chemical and the current applicability of this special provision.
