9902.07.86 - Disperse Blue 284 (({4-[(E)-(3,5-Dinitro-2-thienyl)diazenyl]phe- nyl}imino)di-2,1-ethanediyl diacetate) (CAS No. 42783-06-2) (provided for in 3204.11.10)

This HTS category, 9902.07.86, specifically covers Disperse Blue 284, a synthetic organic dyestuff identified by its chemical name and CAS Number 42783-06-2. While this classification falls under Chapter 99, which deals with temporary legislation and special provisions, it is importantly provided for within HTS subheading 3204.11.10, indicating its primary classification as a synthetic dyestuff. This detailed entry is designed to track and potentially restrict or monitor specific imports of this particular dye, often due to temporary trade policy adjustments or special import requirements.

Unlike the broader categories found at the root of the HTS database, which classify goods based on fundamental product types (e.g., live animals, mineral products, or machinery), this category operates within a specialized domain. Chapter 99 is a temporary placeholder that allows for unique tariff treatments or restrictions outside the standard Harmonized System structure. Therefore, it does not directly compare to sibling categories like live animals or raw materials, which are governed by permanent classification rules. The specificity of 9902.07.86 highlights its purpose as a targeted import control mechanism.

As a leaf node, HTS 9902.07.86 does not have further subcategories. Its existence signifies a precise point within the tariff system for the import of Disperse Blue 284. Classification decisions for goods falling under Chapter 99, and specifically within this sub-heading, would rely heavily on the exact description, provided CAS number, and the specific trade directives or proclamations that led to its inclusion in this temporary legislation chapter. Importers must ensure strict adherence to any associated documentation and requirements stipulated by the relevant trade authorities.
