SITCSection 9
U.S. imports of special transactions and commodities not classified by kind (SITC 93100) totaled $10.8B in April 2026, traded with 178 countries.
Importers of Special Transactions and Commodities Not Classified by Kind paid $16.0M in duties in April 2026 — an effective duty rate of 3.0% on $539.5M in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: April 2026 dataRecorded under SITC 93100, this heading captures trade transactions whose commodity composition cannot be determined or disclosed — including government-to-government transfers, humanitarian aid shipments, and certain defense-related flows. Because the underlying goods are unidentified by kind, standard tariff classification and valuation rules may apply differently depending on the nature of the transaction. Customs brokers and trade compliance teams encountering entries coded here should verify whether the shipment qualifies for a specific exemption or requires a formal commodity declaration.

Common examples include humanitarian aid consignments of mixed goods, certain intergovernmental transfers, and shipments where the commodity breakdown is withheld for confidentiality. The heading is a statistical catch-all, not a tariff provision, so the actual HTS classification of the physical goods still governs duty treatment.
No direct one-to-one mapping exists. SITC codes are statistical classifications used for trade reporting; US Customs entry requires a specific HTS subheading for each article. When a shipment is reported statistically under 93100, the underlying goods must still be classified individually on the CBP entry summary.
