Overview
This HTS category, 9902.15.49, specifically covers new fuel-injection pumps designed for high-performance compression-ignition engines. To qualify, these pumps must meet stringent technical specifications: an engine output of 1000 kW or greater, a pump weight of 60 kg or more, and the capability to generate fuel pressures exceeding 1200 bar. Crucially, these pumps are intended for use within common rail fuel systems and are the "foregoing other than used goods," meaning they must be new. This designation directs classification back to the specific subheading 8413.30.10 for further categorization based on the pump's fundamental type.
As this is a leaf node within Chapter 99, which pertains to temporary legislation and special provisions, there are no further subdivisions (subcategories) under this specific HTS code. Its existence highlights a targeted temporary measure or modification affecting the import of these highly specialized fuel-injection pumps. Unlike the broad product categories found at the root level of the HTS (e.g., live animals, machinery, textiles), this code operates within a specialized chapter designed to manage specific trade scenarios or implement policy decisions that may vary over time. The focus remains solely on identifying and controlling these particular new, high-capacity fuel injection components.
