Overview
This HTS category, 9902.07.65, covers a specific chemical compound: Sodium [(3-methoxy-4-methyl-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H-1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)carbonyl]{[2-(trifluorometh- oxy)phenyl]sulfonyl}azanide, also known by its common name, Flucarbazone-sodium. This is a highly specific designation for a particular herbicide active ingredient. It is crucial to note that this classification falls under Section XXII, which pertains to temporary legislation and special provisions, specifically those related to additional import restrictions proclaimed pursuant to Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Therefore, this category is not for general chemical trade but for goods subject to specific, temporary trade policies.
Unlike the numerous sibling categories within the broader HTS system, which cover a vast array of goods from live animals to machinery, this entry is highly specialized. Its existence within Chapter 99 signifies its unique regulatory status rather than a broad product grouping. Its purpose is to track imports of this particular chemical under specific trade agreements or legislative actions, distinguishing it from other chemicals or agricultural products that might otherwise fall into different chapters.
As a leaf node, HTS 9902.07.65 does not have further subcategories. This indicates that the classification is at its most granular level for the purposes of the specified temporary legislation. Imports of Flucarbazone-sodium under these specific trade provisions will be directly accounted for under this code, ensuring compliance with any associated restrictions, quotas, or duties implemented under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Any import of this chemical outside of these specific temporary provisions would likely be classified under its permanent subheading in Chapter 29, as indicated by the parenthetical reference to subheading 2935.90.75.
