Yes. Imports of dicyandiamide (2926200000) originating in China are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should confirm the current applicable list and rate with a licensed customs broker, as Section 301 coverage and exclusion status can change.
Technical-grade DICY used in fertilizer nitrification inhibitors typically requires lower purity than electronic or pharmaceutical grades. Higher-purity material for epoxy hardener or drug-intermediate applications is more commonly sourced from European suppliers such as Germany or the United Kingdom, where quality-management certifications align with downstream customer requirements.
