Overview
This HTS category, specifically 9902.07.39, pertains to a specialized pharmaceutical substance identified as Methyl {(2S)-1-[(2S)-2-{4-[(6S)-3-{2-[(2S)-1-{(2S)-2- [(methoxycarbonyl)amino]-3-methylbutanoyl}-2-pyr- rolidinyl]-1H-imidazol-4-yl}-6-phenylindolo[1,2-c][1,3]ben- zoxazin-10-yl]-1H-imidazol-2-yl}-1-pyrrol idinyl]-3-methyl-1-oxo-2-butanyl}carbamate, also known by its common name Elbasvir (CAS No. 1370468-36-2). This classification is established under Chapter 99, which covers temporary legislation and modifications. The provision for this substance is found within subheading 2934.99.30, indicating its primary classification as an organic compound.
Distinguishing this category from its siblings, which generally encompass live animals, highlights its unique nature. While siblings at the broader level deal with live agricultural commodities, this specific code within Chapter 99 addresses a highly processed, specifically identified chemical compound with pharmaceutical applications. The context of Chapter 99 signifies that this classification is subject to temporary trade measures or specific import restrictions, differentiating it from permanent tariff classifications for general goods.
As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories within this specific HTS code. Its granular nature means that any import or export of Elbasvir will fall directly under this designation. Classification decisions for goods within Chapter 99 are typically driven by specific proclamations, trade agreements, or special import requirements, rather than solely by the inherent physical characteristics of the product, although the chemical identity of Elbasvir remains paramount for its initial placement in Chapter 29.
