Last updated: April 2026 dataAnthracite is the highest-rank, lowest-volatile coal grade, prized for its high carbon content and clean-burning characteristics in metallurgical, filtration, and residential heating applications. All US imports enter under a single tariff line (2701110000), and the heading is not subject to tariff-rate quota, though energy-sector buyers should monitor any applicable trade-remedy measures affecting specific origins. Peru is the leading supplier to the US market, with the United Kingdom and China also contributing meaningfully to import volumes. The relatively concentrated supplier base and anthracite's niche end-uses — including water filtration media and electrode manufacturing — make origin continuity a key procurement consideration.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Anthracite is defined by its high fixed-carbon content (typically above 90% on a dry, ash-free basis) and very low volatile matter, distinguishing it from bituminous and sub-bituminous coals. Customs classification relies on laboratory analysis of these properties; misclassification between anthracite and bituminous coal can affect duty liability and trade-remedy exposure.
Trade-remedy applicability depends on the country of origin and the specific tariff line. Imports from China may be subject to Section 301 tariffs; importers should verify current CBP guidance and any active antidumping or countervailing duty orders for the relevant origin before entry.
