Last updated: April 2026 dataWattle extract — commercially known as mimosa extract — is produced from the bark of Acacia species and ranks among the most widely traded vegetable tannins globally, valued for its light color and compatibility with chrome-free leather processing. South Africa is the dominant US supplier, reflecting that country's large-scale Acacia mearnsii plantation industry, with Brazil as a secondary source. Classified under the single line 3201200000, it competes directly with quebracho and chestnut extracts in the tannery supply chain, and buyers often switch between them based on price and hide type.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Yes — 'mimosa extract' is the common trade name for wattle extract in the leather industry. Both terms refer to tannin extracts derived from Acacia bark, and both are classified under HTS 3201200000. Importers should ensure that commercial invoices and certificates of analysis use consistent terminology to avoid unnecessary CBP queries.
CBP may request a certificate of analysis confirming the Acacia species source and tannin content, along with a phytosanitary certificate if the product contains residual plant material. Because wattle extract is a processed extract rather than a live plant, USDA APHIS quarantine requirements generally do not apply, but importers should verify with their customs broker given the botanical origin.
