Overview
This HTS category, 9902.07.07, pertains to Thiamethoxam, a specific chemical compound identified by its CAS number 153719-23-4. Thiamethoxam is an insecticide belonging to the neonicotinoid class. Its inclusion under Chapter 99 signifies its treatment under temporary legislation, temporary modifications proclaimed pursuant to trade agreements, or additional import restrictions as proclaimed pursuant to Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. This classification indicates that the import of Thiamethoxam is subject to special provisions beyond its basic chemical classification under subheading 2934.10.90.
As this is a leaf node within Chapter 99, it does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the focus for classification purposes lies in accurately identifying Thiamethoxam itself. Its distinction from other potential sibling categories within Chapter 99 would hinge on whether those categories also represent chemicals subject to similar trade agreement-related or Section 22 provisions, or if they cover entirely different types of temporary or restricted goods. The specific description and CAS number are crucial for ensuring that the imported substance is indeed Thiamethoxam and not a related but different chemical.
