Overview
This HTS category, 9902.07.96, specifically covers certain mixtures of Disperse Blue dyes. These mixtures are comprised of Disperse Blue 77, identified by CAS No. 20241-76-3 and chemically known as 1-Anilino-4,5-dihydroxy-8-nitro-9,10-anthraquinone, and Disperse Blue 60 M, identified by CAS No. 12217-80-0 and chemically known as 4,11-Diamino-2-(3-methoxypropyl)-1H-naphtho[2,3-f]isoindole-1,3,5,10(2H)-tetrone. The "provided for in subheading 3204.11.35" notation indicates that while these specific mixtures fall under this temporary provision, their underlying classification would typically be within the broader category of synthetic dyestuffs.
The significance of this classification lies in its placement within Chapter 99, which denotes temporary legislation, trade agreement modifications, or specific import restrictions, particularly those proclaimed pursuant to Section 22 of the Agricultural Adjustment Act. This distinguishes it from the primary HTS classification system found in Chapters 1-98, which categorize goods based on their intrinsic nature and function. Unlike sibling categories that might represent distinct product groups or raw materials at the root of the HTS database, this entry focuses on a very particular set of chemical mixtures subject to special trade or regulatory measures.
As a leaf node within the HTS database, this category does not have further subcategories. Therefore, the classification is definitive for the described mixtures of Disperse Blue 77 and Disperse Blue 60 M when imported under the conditions specified by the Chapter 99 provisions. Importers should ensure that the product precisely matches the chemical descriptions and CAS numbers provided to ensure correct compliance with any associated temporary measures or restrictions.
