HS Code 3301.30 – Resinoids
HS code 3301.30 is the 6-digit subheading for resinoids. It is used for benzoin resinoid, labdanum resinoid, oakmoss resinoid, opoponax resinoid and galbanum resinoid.
What HS 3301.30 covers
This HS code covers resinoids, which are natural extracts obtained from dried plant materials (resins, gums, balsams) using solvent extraction. These highly concentrated aromatic substances are crucial raw materials in the perfumery, cosmetics, and sometimes flavor industries, valued for their deep, tenacious base notes. International trade in resinoids involves specialized botanical extractors and suppliers, with major importers being large fragrance houses, cosmetic manufacturers, and aromatherapy companies. Exporters are typically found in regions rich in the specific botanical resources. Key considerations in trade include the purity and concentration of the resinoid, sustainable sourcing practices, and compliance with cosmetic or food safety regulations, depending on the end application. The market often seeks unique and exotic aromatic profiles.

How these figures are built
109 countries reported 2025 trade to UN Comtrade in HS 2022, and their own totals are used. Countries that did not report are estimated from what other countries recorded trading with them. Those estimates miss trade with other non-reporting countries, so they can be low, and a non-reporting country can rank higher than shown or be missing from the list. World totals add both and leave out trade between two non-reporting countries. Figures are in current US dollars; reported imports are mostly valued CIF and exports FOB, and exports include re-exports. The UN Comtrade links show the underlying records; they can also list a few reporters left out here (regional groups and older HS editions).
