Last updated: July 2026 dataClassified under a single 10-digit line (2811210000), imported carbon dioxide serves industrial gas, food-grade carbonation, supercritical extraction, and enhanced oil-recovery applications — each demanding different purity specifications that buyers must verify against supplier documentation. Israel leads US supply, followed by Canada and Taiwan, a sourcing mix that reflects both proximity logistics and specialty-grade production capacity. Importers should confirm whether the grade is food-contact or industrial, as food-grade CO₂ may trigger FDA oversight depending on its intended use.

346 shipments/mo
Carbon dioxide used as a food additive or in direct food contact (e.g., carbonation, modified-atmosphere packaging) may be subject to FDA oversight. Importers should confirm the intended use and consult a licensed customs broker or regulatory counsel to determine whether an FDA prior notice or other admissibility step applies.
All imported carbon dioxide falls under HTS 2811210000 regardless of purity grade, but commercial contracts and safety data sheets should specify industrial, beverage, or electronic grade, as these affect downstream regulatory requirements and buyer acceptance criteria rather than the tariff classification itself.
