U.S. imports of Other Aromatic Hydrocarbon Mixtures (≥65% Distilling at 250°C) (HS 270750) totaled $34.8M in August 2026, imported from 17 countries.
Importers of Other Aromatic Hydrocarbon Mixtures (≥65% Distilling at 250°C) paid $99K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 0.29% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Other Aromatic Hydrocarbon Mixtures (≥65% Distilling at 250°C) imports of $34.8M in August 2026 ran 16% above the year-to-date monthly average of $29.9M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataAromatic hydrocarbon mixtures not elsewhere specified, where at least 65% by volume distills at or below 250°C by the ASTM D 86 method, are captured under a single tariff line (2707500000) and serve as blending components, solvents, and chemical intermediates across the coatings, rubber, and specialty chemicals industries. Canada leads US supply under this heading, with Italy and the Netherlands also among the top sources — a pattern consistent with European coal tar processing and Canadian petrochemical integration. Correct classification hinges on the distillation profile: importers should retain ASTM D 86 test results from the supplier to substantiate the ≥65% at 250°C threshold.

Classification requires that at least 65% of the product by volume distills at or below 250°C when tested by ASTM D 86. Importers should obtain the distillation test report from the foreign supplier and retain it as part of the entry documentation. If the product fails this threshold, it may fall under a different subheading within Chapter 27 or Chapter 29 depending on composition and origin.
Heading 2707 is specifically reserved for products of coal tar distillation or other high-temperature coal distillation. Petroleum-derived aromatic mixtures meeting a similar distillation profile would generally be classified under heading 2710 or Chapter 29. The production origin — coal tar versus petroleum — is therefore a threshold classification question that must be resolved before applying the distillation test.
