U.S. exports of ddt (clofenotane) in packings not exceeding 300 g (HS 380852) totaled $446K in December 2024, traded with 1 country.
DDT (clofenotane) packaged in net weights not exceeding 300 grams per container is classified under tariff line 3808520000. DDT is a persistent organochlorine insecticide banned for most uses in the United States under EPA authority and listed under the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants, making commercial importation for domestic use effectively prohibited in nearly all circumstances. Any attempted import requires careful legal review, as EPA registration for DDT has been cancelled for virtually all uses, and shipments may be subject to seizure. Classification here is primarily relevant for reference, research quantities, or transit scenarios subject to strict regulatory oversight.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Commercial importation of DDT for domestic pesticidal use is effectively prohibited because EPA has cancelled its registrations. Narrow exceptions may exist for scientific research or export purposes under strict EPA and CBP oversight. Any party considering an import should consult legal counsel and contact EPA's Office of Pesticide Programs before attempting entry.
The HTS reflects the international Harmonized System nomenclature, which retains DDT as a distinct subheading to enable statistical tracking of any global trade, including transit shipments, research quantities, and exports to countries where limited use may still be permitted under Stockholm Convention exemptions. The existence of the tariff line does not imply that importation into the US is permissible.
