Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-4 3919 when importing self-adhesive plastic products like tape or film. For example, if you’re bringing in rolls of self-adhesive plastic film that are 15 cm wide, this code applies directly.
When deciding between HS-6 391910 and HS-6 391990, consider the width and form of your product. If your self-adhesive plastic sheets are in rolls and not wider than 20 cm, use 391910. If they are cut to size or wider than 20 cm, you’ll need 391990.
Both subheadings cover self-adhesive plastics, but the distinction lies in their packaging. Rolls under 20 cm width fall under 391910, while all other forms, including sheets or wider rolls, fall under 391990.
