Overview
This HTS category, 9902.09.55, specifically classifies product mixtures containing two active fungicidal ingredients: Fluopyram and Trifloxystrobin. These are ready-to-use fungicidal formulations designed for agricultural or horticultural applications, as indicated by their parenthetical reference to subheading 3808.92.15, which covers preparations for the retail sale of fungicides. The presence and combination of both Fluopyram (CAS No. 658066-35-4) and Trifloxystrobin (CAS No. 141517-21-7) are the defining characteristics of goods falling under this provision.
As a temporary or special classification provision within Chapter 99, this entry exists to address specific trade policy measures or restrictions that are not reflected in the standard HTS nomenclature. Unlike the primary HTS categories beginning with "01," which classify live animals, this section is dedicated to temporary legislative measures. Therefore, any direct comparison to sibling categories like live horses or swine is not relevant, as they fall under entirely different chapters and are based on fundamental product characteristics, not temporary trade provisions.
Since this HTS code is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories. Classification under 9902.09.55 is definitive for product mixtures meeting the exact description of containing both specified active ingredients, intended for use as fungicides, and subject to the particular temporary legislation associated with this code. This ensures that imports of these specific fungicidal mixtures are accounted for under the designated trade provisions.
