Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3808.93.15.00Same rate: 41.5%

If formulated as a herbicide with diluents or carriers exceeding 1% by weight

Formulated pesticide preparations with monuron as active ingredient are classified in Chapter 38 heading 3808, not pure compounds of Chapter 29.

2924.29.47.00Same rate: 41.5%

If imported as a salt of monuron rather than the base ureine

Salts of ureines are classified under the general aromatic ureines subheading 2924.29, following Chapter 29 note on salts going with the parent organic compound.

2930.90Lower: 13.7% vs 41.5%

If containing additional organo-sulfur directly linked to carbon

Organo-sulfur compounds fall under heading 2930 if sulfur atoms are directly carbon-linked, taking precedence per Chapter 29 classification notes.
