About Duty Rates: Rates are divided into Column 1 and Column 2. Column 1 is subdivided into General (normal trade relations rates for all countries not eligible for special programs) and Special (preferential rates for countries with free trade agreements or preference programs). Column 2 rates apply to products from Cuba, North Korea, Belarus, and Russia. When no special rate exists for a classification, General rates apply.

Overview

This HTS category, 3204.12.20.00, encompasses a broad range of synthetic organic coloring matter specifically identified as "acid dyes" and their related preparations. Acid dyes are characterized by their anionic nature, meaning they possess acidic functional groups that allow them to bind to proteinaceous and polyamide materials such as wool, silk, nylon, and leather through ionic interactions. The extensive list of specific dye names provided, including Acid black, Acid blue, Acid brown, Acid green, Acid orange, Acid red, Acid violet, and Acid yellow dyes, illustrates the diversity of colors and chemical structures within this classification. Preparations based on these acid dyes are also included, provided they meet the criteria outlined in Note 3 to Chapter 32, which generally refers to mixtures of colorants or colorants with diluents or additives.

This classification is distinct from its siblings, such as 3204.12.05.00 (Acid black 210 powder and presscake), 3204.12.13.00 (Acid violet 19), and 3204.12.17.00, which cover more specific named acid dyes or groups of acid dyes. It also differs from 3204.12.30.00, which is designated for certain mordant dyes. The "Other" designation within this broad acid dye category signifies that it serves as a residual classification for acid dyes and their preparations not specifically listed under other subheadings at the same level. The inclusion of specific examples like copper phthalocyanine tetrasulfonic acids and complex dye mixtures demonstrates the scope of this category to cover not only individual dye compounds but also formulations with defined compositions.
