What is the US duty on carbon tetrachloride from China?
The USITC extract imported on 25 September 2026 stores a general rate of 2.3 percent on HTS 2903.14.00.00, described as Carbon tetrachloride. The other rate on that line is 8.5 percent. The special-rate text does not name China.
There is no footnote on that line. Heading 2903 stores no rate. Additional duties on the carbon tetrachloride line are blank, so this file does not store a Section 301 percent. The anti-dumping file dated 16 May 2026 stores heading 2903 on hydrofluorocarbon blends and on R-134a, not on carbon tetrachloride, and stores no cash-deposit percent on those rows. This page is the United States file only. It does not state an Australian duty or a ChAFTA percent.

| HTS | Description | General rate | Additional duties |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2903 | Halogenated derivatives of hydrocarbons | blank | blank |
| 2903.14.00.00 | Carbon tetrachloride | 2.3% | blank |
| 2903.13.00.00 | Chloroform (Trichloromethane) | 5.5% | blank |
The other column is not shown. It does not apply to goods of China.
This page does not treat 2.3 percent as a China total. Dichloromethane, HTS 2903.12.00.00, stores 3.7 percent general and 25 percent other, and its other column footnotes 9903.90.08. That footnote is not on this line, and it is not priced here. The dichloromethane answer is on US duty on dichloromethane from China. Confirm the line on hts.usitc.gov before you quote. Section 301 stays on the USTR Section 301 page.
The anti-dumping file, updated_at 2026-05-16T23:32:23.566Z, lists A-570-028, product Hydrofluorocarbon blends, headings 2903 and 3824, and A-570-044, product 1,1,1,2-Tetrafluoroethane (R-134a), heading 2903. Neither product text says carbon tetrachloride. Both rows set duty_rate_percent to null. The R-134a answer is on US duty on R-134a from China. Check ACCESS before you treat that gap as a clearance.

Frequently asked
What is the US duty on carbon tetrachloride from China?
The USITC extract imported on 25 September 2026 stores a general rate of 2.3 percent on HTS 2903.14.00.00, described as Carbon tetrachloride. The other rate on that line is 8.5 percent. The special-rate text does not name China. There is no footnote. Additional duties are blank, so this file does not store a Section 301 percent.
Does 2.3 percent include a China program?
No. The special-rate text is Free for a list of programs, and that list does not name China. This page does not treat 2.3 percent as a China total, and it does not add a Section 301 percent.
Do the heading 2903 anti-dumping rows cover carbon tetrachloride?
The file stores two heading 2903 rows, and neither product text is carbon tetrachloride. A-570-028 is hydrofluorocarbon blends. A-570-044 is 1,1,1,2-tetrafluoroethane (R-134a). Both store no cash-deposit percent. A heading tag is not this product.
Is chloroform the same rate?
No. Chloroform, HTS 2903.13.00.00, stores 5.5 percent general and 32 percent other. Dichloromethane, HTS 2903.12.00.00, stores 3.7 percent general and 25 percent other. Heading 2903 stores no rate. The file does not copy 2.3 percent onto those lines.
