Today’s UK Global Tariff update introduces a single targeted customs duty measure taking effect immediately. Authorities have instituted a 6% duty on imports of the organic chemical intermediate 2,6-diisopropylaniline from all origins under Chapter 29. Aside from this specific tariff line, the wider UK schedule remains unchanged following the month-start agricultural resets.
Targeted duty in organic chemicals
The day’s single regulatory update introduces an immediate customs duty within Chapter 29 (organic chemicals), taking effect on 4 November 2026:
- Commodity code:
2921490060 - Product: 2,6-Diisopropylaniline (CAS RN 24544-04-5)
- Origin: All countries
- Duty rate: 6%
The measure applies across all trading partners, establishing a standard baseline tariff for declarations lodged against this specific chemical intermediate.
What to watch
Following the seasonal quota resets and preferential adjustments enacted on 1 November, the UK schedule has returned to a low-volume operational posture. Import compliance teams handling fine chemical supply chains should ensure customs declaration systems register the 6% duty rate on entries under commodity code 2921490060 starting today.
