Dear Mr. Peterson:
In your letter dated July 25, 2018 you requested a tariff classification ruling on behalf of Hodogaya Chemical (USA).
The subject product is an organic chemical substance called Chlorpropham (CAS # 101-21-3). It is also known as Isopropyl N-(3-chlorophenyl)carbamate. It is an aromatic amide.

The rate of duty will be 6.5 percent ad valorem.
