Last updated: August 2026 dataAnthracite is the highest-rank, lowest-volatile coal grade, prized for its high carbon content and clean-burning characteristics in metallurgical, filtration, and specialty heating applications where bituminous coal is unsuitable. Classified under a single US 10-digit line (2701110000), it enters without the grade-based splits that apply to bituminous coal, though shipments from certain origins may be subject to Section 301 tariffs. Peru is the leading import source, followed by the United Kingdom and China — a supplier mix that reflects anthracite's geographically concentrated global reserves. Buyers should monitor origin-specific trade remedy exposure, particularly for Chinese-origin material.

Chinese-origin anthracite coal has been subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should verify the current status and applicable list with a licensed customs broker, as Section 301 coverage and rates are subject to ongoing review and modification.
Anthracite is defined by its volatile matter content on a dry, mineral-matter-free basis — generally below 14% — which separates it from bituminous and sub-bituminous coals under the HTS. Laboratory analysis of volatile matter is typically required to support the classification, and misclassification between anthracite and bituminous grades is a common audit finding.
