9902.08.67 - 4-[(E)-Phenyldiazenyl]aniline (Solvent yellow 1) (CAS No. 60-09-3) (provided for in subheading 3204.19.11)

This HTS category, 9902.08.67, specifically addresses the chemical compound 4-[(E)-Phenyldiazenyl]aniline, also known by its common names Solvent yellow 1 and CAS No. 60-09-3. This entry falls under Chapter 99, which is reserved for temporary legislation, temporary modifications to trade agreements, and additional import restrictions. Therefore, goods classified under this subheading are subject to specific, potentially time-limited, import rules and regulations beyond standard tariff classifications.

While this is a leaf node, meaning it has no further subcategories, its parent context within Section XXII highlights its role in managing specific import situations. Unlike the broad commodity categories found in earlier chapters of the HTS (e.g., live animals in Chapter 01), this classification is highly specific, focusing on a particular organic chemical used as a dye or colorant. The "provided for in subheading 3204.19.11" notation indicates that while it falls under a temporary measure, its underlying classification for general trade purposes would typically be within Chapter 32, specifically related to synthetic organic dyestuffs.

The purpose of this Chapter 99 classification is to impose specific controls, restrictions, or special duty rates on Solvent yellow 1, potentially due to trade policy, national security, or other temporary legislative directives. Importers must consult the full text of the legislation associated with this Chapter 99 subheading to understand the exact requirements, including any quotas, licensing, or additional duties that may apply.
