U.S. imports of marble and travertine, crude or roughly trimmed (HS 251511) totaled $12K in April 2026, traded with 3 countries.
Last updated: April 2026 dataItaly is the dominant supplier of crude and roughly trimmed marble and travertine to the US market, reflecting its long-established quarrying industry and the premium placed on Italian-origin stone in architectural and luxury interior applications. Turkey and India are also significant sources under this heading. The single US tariff line (2515110000) covers both marble and travertine in their unworked or minimally worked quarry state, and correct classification hinges on confirming the stone has not been cut into rectangular blocks or slabs, which would shift it to a separate subheading.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Crude or roughly trimmed marble is stone in its quarried state, shaped only enough for safe transport. Once it is sawn or cut into rectangular or square blocks or slabs of defined dimensions, it is classified under the separate subheading for cut marble (251512), which carries its own tariff line.
Italy's Carrara and other quarrying regions have centuries of extraction infrastructure and produce varieties — including white statuary marble and classic travertine — that command strong demand from US architects and stone fabricators. This established supply chain and brand recognition sustain Italy's leading position even against lower-cost competitors.
