Overview

This HTS category, 9902.07.28, covers the specific herbicide known as 2-(2-Chlorobenzyl)-4,4-dimethyl-1,2-oxazolidin-3-one, commonly referred to as Clomazone. It also encompasses any formulations that contain this active compound. The designation "provided for in subheading 2934.99.15" indicates that the pure Clomazone itself is classified under a specific chapter for organic compounds, while "provided for in subheading 3808.93.15" pertains to its use as an insecticide or pesticide within broader formulations. This temporary legislation category operates under Section XXII, which deals with special classification provisions, temporary modifications, and import restrictions.

Distinguishing this category from its siblings is straightforward, as the siblings listed (e.g., 0101, 0102, etc.) all pertain to live animals. This node, however, is entirely dedicated to a specific chemical compound and its agricultural applications, falling within the domain of special trade measures rather than general commodity classifications. The scope of Chapter 99 is distinct, focusing on temporary measures and trade agreement-related adjustments, setting it apart from the primary chapters of the HTS that classify goods based on their inherent nature and use.

As this HTS code represents a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, classification under 9902.07.28 is specific to either the pure Clomazone compound or its direct inclusion in fungicidal, herbicidal, insecticidal, or similar preparations. Importers must verify the precise chemical identity and intended use of the product to ensure correct classification under this specialized provision.
