Limited Trade Activity for Reactive Dyes Between US and British Indian Ocean Territory
Recent trade data indicates minimal to no recorded transactions of Reactive Dyes (including Reactive Black 1, Reactive Blue 1, 2, 4, Reactive Orange 1, Reactive Red 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, and Reactive Yellow 1) between the United States and the British Indian Ocean Territory (BIOT). This is attributed to BIOT's status as a military territory with restricted commercial activity.
October 15, 2023
Impact: Negligible impact on trade due to the absence of significant commercial operations in BIOT.
US Export Restrictions to BIOT Remain Unchanged for Chemical Goods
The United States continues to enforce strict export controls to the British Indian Ocean Territory for chemical products, including reactive dyes under HS Code 3204.16. This is due to the territory's strategic military importance and limited civilian population.
September 20, 2023
Impact: Trade in reactive dyes remains restricted, with no significant shipments recorded.
No Reported Imports of Reactive Dyes from BIOT to US
Trade reports confirm that there have been no imports of reactive dyes or related chemical products from the British Indian Ocean Territory to the United States in recent years, reflecting the territory's lack of industrial production capacity.
August 5, 2023
Impact: No impact on US markets as BIOT does not export these products.
