U.S. imports of titanium dioxide-based pigments & preparations (nesoi) (HS 320619) totaled $8.7M in April 2026, traded with 29 countries.
Importers of Titanium Dioxide-Based Pigments & Preparations (NESOI) paid $300K in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 8.3% on $3.6M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule. Titanium Dioxide-Based Pigments & Preparations (NESOI) imports of $8.7M in April 2026 ran 17% above the year-to-date monthly average of $7.4M.
Last updated: April 2026 dataPigments and preparations based on titanium dioxide that do not meet the ≥80% dry-weight threshold fall here under tariff line 3206190000, capturing lower-concentration TiO₂ blends and specialty formulations used across coatings, ink, and plastics industries. Canada and the Netherlands are the leading US suppliers, reflecting both integrated North American supply chains and Europe's established specialty-chemicals sector. Because the line is defined by exclusion from 320611, precise analytical documentation of TiO₂ content is essential to avoid misclassification at entry.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
A supplier-issued certificate of analysis showing TiO₂ content on a dry-weight basis is the primary supporting document. If the content is confirmed below 80% dry weight, the product is properly classified under 3206190000. Customs may request laboratory testing if the declared content is near the threshold.
End use does not drive the classification here — the determinative factor is TiO₂ concentration relative to the 80% dry-weight threshold. Both ink and paint formulations below that threshold fall under 3206190000 regardless of their intended application.
