Overview
This HTS category, 9902.06.78, specifically covers (RS)-1-p-Chlorophenyl-4,4-dimethyl-3-(1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-ylmethyl)pentan-3-ol, commonly known as Tebuconazole. Tebuconazole is a broad-spectrum triazole fungicide widely used in agriculture to protect crops from a variety of fungal diseases. Its inclusion within Chapter 99 signifies a temporary legislative measure or modification affecting its importation, distinct from its permanent classification under subheading 2933.99.22.
Unlike sibling categories at the Chapter 99 level, which might represent other temporary measures or specific restrictions on various goods, this node is precisely defined by the chemical substance Tebuconazole. Its purpose as a fungicide dictates its application and distinguishes it from other chemical compounds or finished products that might be temporarily regulated under different 99xx codes.
As a leaf node, HTS 9902.06.78 does not have further subdivisions. The classification is solely based on the identification of Tebuconazole itself, as indicated by its chemical name, common name, and CAS Number. This specific listing suggests that while Tebuconazole is generally classified under 2933.99.22, its importation under this 9902 code is subject to the particular temporary provisions outlined in Chapter 99. Importers must ensure compliance with both the specific conditions of this 9902 code and the underlying classification in Chapter 29.
