Last updated: July 2026 dataIndividual tubes, pans, jars, or bottles of artists', students', and signboard colors — sold separately rather than as assembled sets — classify under 3213900000, the sole 10-digit line for this heading. France leads US import supply here, reflecting the prominence of French fine-art paint brands among professional-grade single-pigment offerings, with China and the United Kingdom also significant sources. The distinction from heading 321310 (colors in sets) hinges entirely on retail presentation, so packaging documentation at entry is critical. Section 301 exposure applies to Chinese-origin goods, while French-origin professional colors typically carry standard MFN duty rates.

Customs will look at commercial invoices, packing lists, and retail packaging to confirm that items are not presented as pre-assembled sets. Bulk cartons of identical SKUs or individually priced single tubes with no set-assembly packaging generally support classification under 321390 rather than 321310.
France's leadership in this subheading reflects the global reputation of French manufacturers for professional single-pigment paints — products where brand identity and pigment quality command premium pricing. Chinese production tends to concentrate in value-tier set configurations, while French suppliers capture the professional single-tube segment.
