9902.15.48 - Fuel-injection pump assemblies, designed for compression-ignition internal combustion engines with a capacity of 6.4 liters and with output of less than 1000 kW of power (provided for in subheading 8413.30.10), the foregoing other than used goods

This HTS category, 9902.15.48, covers specific new fuel-injection pump assemblies intended for use in compression-ignition internal combustion engines. The defining characteristics for classification under this provision are the engine's displacement of 6.4 liters and an output of less than 1000 kW. Crucially, this classification is exclusively for new, unused goods, distinguishing it from potentially similar components classified under other provisions for used equipment.

As this is a leaf node within Chapter 99, it does not have further subcategories. Instead, its specificity arises from its direct link to a particular parent provision within the Harmonized Tariff Schedule, namely subheading 8413.30.10, which covers fuel-injection pumps. The 9902 code signifies a temporary modification or special provision applied to goods that would otherwise fall under the primary HTS classification, in this instance, due to trade agreements or other temporary legislative measures impacting specific types of new fuel-injection pumps.

Understanding the scope of this category requires careful attention to both the engine specifications (6.4-liter capacity, <1000 kW output) and the condition of the goods (new, not used). This ensures accurate classification and compliance with the special provisions outlined in Chapter 99, which often relate to tariff rate adjustments or specific import requirements for designated goods.
