U.S. exports of mixtures containing halon-1211, halon-1301, or halon-2402 (HS 382720) totaled $21K in June 2026, traded with 5 countries.
Halon-based fire-suppression blends — built around bromochlorodifluoromethane (Halon-1211), bromotrifluoromethane (Halon-1301), or dibromotetrafluoroethanes (Halon-2402) — are classified under a single US tariff line (3827200000) and are among the most potent ozone-depleting substances regulated under the Montreal Protocol. EPA allowances are mandatory for import, and the primary legitimate trade today involves recovered or recycled halons for critical-use exemptions such as aviation and military fire suppression systems. Importers must be prepared to demonstrate that the material originates from an approved reclamation source and meets purity specifications for its intended end use.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Critical-use exemptions under the Montreal Protocol allow continued use of recovered halons in aviation fire suppression, certain military applications, and other systems where no technically feasible alternative exists. Importers must document the critical-use basis and hold the required EPA allowances.
Documentation should include the reclaimer's certification, the source of the recovered material, and purity test results meeting industry standards (such as those published by the Halon Recycling Corporation or equivalent). CBP may request this documentation at entry, and EPA may audit allowance usage post-importation.
