U.S. imports of Hydrogen Peroxide (HS 284700) totaled $4.6M in August 2026, imported from 20 countries.
Importers of Hydrogen Peroxide paid $76K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 1.64% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: August 2026 dataHydrogen peroxide is a versatile oxidizing agent used across pulp and paper bleaching, semiconductor wafer cleaning, textile processing, and water treatment, with industrial-grade concentrations typically ranging from 35% to 70% by weight. A single 10-digit line (2847000000) covers all forms, including solid urea-peroxide adducts. Canada is the leading US supplier, with Japan and Taiwan also significant sources — a pattern consistent with proximity to semiconductor fabrication clusters that demand ultra-high-purity grades.

No — HTS 2847000000 covers hydrogen peroxide regardless of concentration or purity grade, from dilute consumer solutions to high-concentration industrial and semiconductor-grade material. However, concentration affects DOT hazardous materials classification and packaging requirements, which vary significantly between, for example, 8% and 70% solutions.
Concentrations above certain thresholds (generally 8% and above) are classified as oxidizers under DOT 49 CFR, requiring appropriate packaging, labeling, and placarding. Very high concentrations (above 60%) may trigger additional DHS Chemical Facility Anti-Terrorism Standards (CFATS) reporting obligations for the receiving facility. Importers should confirm compliance with both DOT and DHS requirements before shipment.
