HTS 3906 — Acrylic polymers in primary forms Tariff Rate (2026)

HTS heading 3906 covers acrylic polymers in primary forms, entering the United States at a 6.5% MFN duty rate. Acrylic polymers in primary forms. Used in paints, adhesives, textiles, and superabsorbent materials. On top of the MFN rate, most non-EU imports under this heading carry the Section 301 forced-labor tariff — a two-tier 10%/12.5% duty that replaced the flat 10% Section 122 rate on July 24, 2026. EU-origin goods instead fall under the EU-US trade deal's 15% all-inclusive ceiling (effective July 1, 2026), where nothing stacks and goods with an MFN rate of 15% or more pay MFN only. Chinese-origin goods add a Section 301 China tariff of 25% on top. Worked example: a $10,000 shipment under HTS 3906 owes about $650 in MFN duty (6.5%); adding the 10% base forced-labor surcharge brings it to roughly $1,650 from a standard-tier origin, or about $1,900 from a 12.5%-tier origin such as China (before that origin's Section 301 China tariff).
