U.S. imports of heterocyclic compounds with quinoline or isoquinoline ring system (nesoi) (HS 293349) totaled $9.1M in July 2026, traded with 22 countries.
Importers of Heterocyclic Compounds with Quinoline or Isoquinoline Ring System (NESOI) paid $400K in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 8.3% on $4.8M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataQuinoline and isoquinoline ring-system compounds serve critical roles in antimalarial drug synthesis, veterinary medicine (ethoxyquin as a feed antioxidant, decoquinate as a coccidiostat), and fluoroquinolone antibiotic production. The US schedule provides twelve 10-digit lines under this heading, distinguishing ethoxyquin (2933491000 and 2933491350), drug-containing lines (2933492250 and 2933492600), pesticide lines (2933493000), and general compound lines. India leads US supply, with China a close second; South Korea and Japan are also notable sources. Ethoxyquin imports for animal feed use are subject to FDA Center for Veterinary Medicine review, while fluoroquinolone drug intermediates require FDA drug import compliance.

Yes. Ethoxyquin used in animal feed is regulated by FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine as a feed additive under 21 CFR. Importers must ensure the product conforms to the approved use conditions and concentration limits. Shipments may be detained for FDA examination if labeling or documentation does not clearly establish the intended use and compliance with applicable feed additive regulations. Consult a licensed customs broker or regulatory counsel familiar with FDA CVM requirements before importing.
4,7-Dichloroquinoline is a specific chemical intermediate — most notably a precursor in chloroquine synthesis — and has its own dedicated line (2933490800) because it is a defined compound rather than a finished drug. Finished pharmaceutical products containing a quinoline ring system classify under the drug-specific lines (2933492250 or 2933492600). The key distinction is whether the imported material is a defined chemical intermediate or a recognized pharmaceutical active ingredient or finished dosage form.
