Aldicarb, captafol, and methamidophos are acutely toxic organo-sulfur pesticide active ingredients classified together under a single 10-digit line (2930800000) and subject to stringent international controls — captafol and methamidophos are listed under the Rotterdam Convention's Prior Informed Consent (PIC) procedure, requiring exporting countries to notify importing nations before shipment. China is the primary US supplier, with Switzerland also a source. Importers should be aware that aldicarb use in the US is tightly restricted by EPA, and any import of these compounds for pesticidal application requires confirmed EPA registration and compliance with FIFRA.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
The Rotterdam Convention's Prior Informed Consent (PIC) procedure requires that exporting countries formally notify the importing country's designated national authority before shipping listed hazardous chemicals. Both captafol and methamidophos are on the PIC list. US importers must ensure the exporting country has complied with PIC notification requirements and should coordinate with EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs to confirm admissibility before arranging shipment.
Aldicarb's US registration has been significantly restricted by EPA; it was cancelled for most uses and is now permitted only for a narrow set of applications under specific conditions. Importing aldicarb for any use not covered by a current EPA registration would constitute a FIFRA violation. Importers should obtain written confirmation of the applicable EPA registration before any shipment is arranged.
