9902.09.98 - Product mixtures containing methyl 2-{[(4,6-dimethyl-2-pyrimidinyl)carbamoyl]sulfamoyl}benzoate (Sulfometuron-methyl) (CAS No. 74222-97-2) (provided for in subheading 3808.93.15)

This HTS category, 9902.09.98, specifically covers product mixtures containing Sulfometuron-methyl (CAS No. 74222-97-2), a herbicide. These mixtures are provided for under subheading 3808.93.15, indicating their primary classification as pesticides or related products. The inclusion in Chapter 99 signifies that these goods are subject to temporary legislation or specific import restrictions, likely stemming from trade agreements or agricultural adjustment measures.

Unlike the agricultural or live animal headings represented by the sibling categories at this level (e.g., 0101 for live horses, 0102 for live bovine animals), this classification pertains to a formulated chemical product intended for agricultural use. The distinction lies in the nature of the goods: live animals versus a prepared chemical substance. Furthermore, while other chapters might cover raw materials or basic chemicals, this specific entry targets a finished product mixture of Sulfometuron-methyl.

As this is a leaf node within the HTS structure, there are no further subcategories to introduce. The classification of 9902.09.98 is definitive for these specific product mixtures. Any variations in the formulation or concentration of Sulfometuron-methyl, or if the product contained other active ingredients, would necessitate a review of the prevailing tariff schedule to ensure accurate classification, potentially leading to a different HTS code.
