U.S. imports of Ureines & Derivatives; Salts (SITC 51473) totaled $1.2M in August 2026, imported from 14 countries.
Importers of Ureines & Derivatives; Salts paid $197K in duties in August 2026, an average duty rate of 16.57% — duty actually collected as a share of the imports that cleared customs, not the published tariff schedule. Ureines & Derivatives; Salts imports of $1.2M in August 2026 ran 35% below the year-to-date monthly average of $1.8M.
Last updated: August 2026 dataUreines — cyclic compounds derived from urea condensation — and their salts occupy a narrow but chemically distinct niche within nitrogen-function organic chemistry, serving primarily as intermediates in dye synthesis, pharmaceutical research, and specialty resin production. Their classification depends on confirming the ureine ring system rather than open-chain urea derivatives, which fall elsewhere in the tariff schedule. Because this is a relatively low-volume, high-specificity heading, importers frequently benefit from obtaining a CBP binding ruling to lock in classification before large-volume shipments.

Ureines are cyclic compounds featuring a urea-derived ring system, whereas plain urea and its acyclic derivatives are classified in separate headings covering fertilizers or acyclic amides. The presence and type of ring closure is the determinative structural feature; a certified structural formula or CAS registry documentation supports the classification.
Given the narrow and technically specific nature of this heading, a binding ruling from CBP is strongly advisable for any importer handling significant volumes. The ruling provides classification certainty and protects against retroactive duty assessments if CBP later disputes the heading assignment.
