Last updated: August 2026 dataInsecticides and related products defined by Chapter 38 subheading note 2, presented in retail or small-unit packings with a net weight not exceeding 300 grams, are split across three US tariff lines: a general line (3808610000), an aromatic/modified aromatic pesticide line (3808611000), and a residual NESOI line (3808615000). China is the dominant import source, with Brazil and Thailand also supplying. The small-pack threshold is a hard classification boundary — shipments mixing pack sizes above and below 300 grams must be split across the appropriate subheadings. All imports require EPA FIFRA registration compliance and a Notice of Arrival filing.

The 300-gram limit applies to the net weight of each individual retail container, not to the total shipment weight. If a single shipment contains both containers at or below 300 grams and containers above 300 grams, the two groups must be classified separately — the smaller packs under 380861 and the larger packs under 380862. Mixing them under a single line is a misclassification.
Section 301 tariffs apply at the tariff-line level, so the aromatic versus non-aromatic split within 380861 can result in different Section 301 treatment depending on which specific 10-digit line the product enters under. Importers sourcing from China should verify the current Section 301 list and any applicable exclusions for each specific tariff line before entry.
