Overview
This HTS classification, specifically 9902.08.49, pertains to Reactive Red 195, a complex organic chemical identified by its CAS number 93050-79-4. This entry falls under the broader umbrella of Temporary Legislation and Modifications within Chapter 99 of the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, indicating it is subject to specific, often time-limited, import restrictions or special tariff treatments proclaimed under trade agreements or agricultural adjustment acts. The provided description highlights its chemical composition, a polyazo dye, which is crucial for its accurate classification and distinguishes it from other chemical products.
As a temporary and specific provision, 9902.08.49 is distinct from the general classifications found in the primary chapters of the HTS (Sections I-XXI). While its eventual or underlying classification for regular trade purposes is indicated as subheading 3204.16.30 (other synthetic organic dyestuffs), this Chapter 99 entry signifies a distinct regulatory overlay. It is not a general dyestuff classification but rather a specific provision for this particular chemical under special circumstances, thus differentiating it from all other categories in the HTS, including those for other dyes or chemicals not subject to these specific temporary measures.
Since this node is a leaf node, there are no subcategories to introduce. Classification within 9902.08.49 is final for the specified product under the current temporary provisions. Importers must adhere to the specific requirements and documentation associated with this Chapter 99 entry, which may include quotas, special duties, or specific reporting obligations beyond the standard customs declaration for dyestuffs under subheading 3204.16.30.
