Overview
This HTS category, specifically 9902.05.05, covers the chemical compound known as Clethodim, identified by CAS Number 99129-21-2. Clethodim is a selective herbicide used for post-emergence control of grass weeds in a variety of broadleaf crops. Its classification within Chapter 99 signifies that it is subject to temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, or additional import restrictions proclaimed under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act.
Distinguishing this category from its sibling entries, which primarily encompass live animals, is its focus on a specific synthesized chemical product rather than live biological organisms. The underlying classification for Clethodim, as indicated by the parenthetical note "provided for in subheading 2930.90.10," points to its origin within the broader scope of organo-sulfur compounds or other specified chemical preparations, but its presence in Chapter 99 signifies a separate regulatory overlay.
As this node is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification of goods under 9902.05.05 is definitive for Clethodim, and any considerations for further subdivision would pertain to the primary classification within Chapter 29. Imports of Clethodim under this specific HTS code must adhere to any prevailing temporary restrictions, quotas, or specific documentation requirements mandated by the temporary legislation associated with this provision.
