Last updated: July 2026 dataAgarbatti — the Sanskrit-derived trade name for incense sticks widely used in religious, wellness, and home-fragrance contexts — anchors this heading alongside other odoriferous preparations that release scent through combustion, all classified under 3307410000. India is by far the dominant supplier, reflecting its deep manufacturing tradition and raw-material base in aromatic resins and essential oils, with Japan and Vietnam also notable sources. These products are generally treated as cosmetic/fragrance articles for FDA purposes, though certain formulations containing controlled botanical ingredients may attract APHIS or DEA scrutiny.

India has a centuries-old tradition of agarbatti production, with established clusters in states like Karnataka and Gujarat that combine low-cost labor, domestic access to aromatic raw materials (sandalwood, resins, essential oils), and large-scale export infrastructure. This gives Indian manufacturers a structural cost and quality advantage that has proven difficult for other origins to displace at scale.
Potentially yes. If an incense product contains plant material — such as dried herbs, wood chips, or resins — in a form that could harbor pests or plant diseases, USDA APHIS may require phytosanitary documentation or inspection. Additionally, products containing ingredients derived from CITES-listed species (e.g., certain sandalwood or agarwood) require CITES permits. Importers should review ingredient sourcing carefully and consult a licensed customs broker for complex formulations.
