Overview
This HTS classification, 9902.07.89, specifically covers certain pre-defined mixtures of disperse blue dyes, including Disperse blue 77, Disperse blue 56, Disperse blue 60 M, and Disperse blue 60 ME. These are complex synthetic organic dyes characterized by their specific chemical structures and CAS numbers as detailed in the description. The inclusion of these specific mixtures under this temporary legislation code signifies that they are subject to special provisions or restrictions beyond their standard classification under Chapter 32 of the HTS, which would typically cover dyes and pigments.
This category is distinct from its sibling categories within Chapter 99, which generally address temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, and import restrictions under Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. While siblings might cover a broad range of temporary measures affecting various goods, 9902.07.89 is narrowly focused on these particular dye mixtures. It differentiates itself from the standard dye classifications found in Chapters 30-38 by being a temporary or special provision, implying unique regulatory treatment.
As this is a leaf node in the HTS database, there are no further subcategories under 9902.07.89. Classification within this code is based on the presence and identity of the specified dye mixtures as outlined in the official description. The "provided for in subheading 3204.11.35" reference indicates the base classification for these dyes, to which these temporary provisions are applied. Therefore, importers must ensure their products precisely match the chemical composition and CAS numbers listed to correctly apply this classification.
