U.S. imports of Printed Circuits (NAICS 334412) totaled $310.6M in August 2026, imported from 76 countries.
Importers of Printed Circuits paid $53.5M in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 17.62% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Printed Circuits imports of $310.6M in August 2026 ran 17% above the year-to-date monthly average of $265.0M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataBare printed circuit boards (PCBs) — the substrate layer before components are mounted — are classified under NAICS 334412 and face a distinct trade-remedy landscape from assembled boards, including antidumping and countervailing duty orders that have historically targeted imports from specific Asian suppliers. PCBs are specified by layer count, base material (typically FR-4 glass-epoxy), copper weight, and minimum trace width, and these technical parameters drive both HTS classification and qualification for end-use applications in defense, aerospace, or medical electronics. Importers should verify whether a given board meets IPC standards required by their downstream customers, as non-conforming boards may be rejected even if they clear customs without issue.

A bare PCB has no electronic components mounted on it and is classified under headings covering printed circuits. Once components are soldered or otherwise attached, the product becomes a printed circuit assembly (PCA) and is classified differently — typically at a higher value and potentially under a different trade-remedy regime. The distinction is determined at the time of importation based on the physical state of the board.
Layer count (single-sided, double-sided, or multilayer), base dielectric material, and whether the board is rigid or flexible are the primary classification drivers. Multilayer rigid PCBs, flexible circuits, and rigid-flex combinations each fall under distinct HTS subheadings with potentially different duty rates, so accurate technical documentation from the manufacturer is essential.
