HS-6 · Subheading
390729
Polyethers other than polyacetals, and bis(polyoxyethylene) methylphosphonate; in primary forms
Heading 3907 — Polyacetals, other polyethers and epoxide resins, in primary forms; polycarbonates, alkyd resins, polyallyl esters and other polyesters, in primary forms
Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 390729 when importing or exporting polyethers other than polyacetals, specifically in their primary forms. An example would be a shipment of bis(polyoxyethylene) methylphosphonate used in industrial applications.
This code is distinct from HS-6 390721, which covers polyacetals in primary forms. While both belong to the same heading, 390729 specifically excludes polyacetals, focusing instead on other types of polyethers.
The HS-6 390729 line includes polyethers that are typically used in the production of coatings, adhesives, and various chemical formulations. These materials are often supplied in bulk containers or drums for industrial use.
When classifying products, consider whether your polyether is a bis(polyoxyethylene) compound or another type of polyether. This distinction is crucial for proper tariff application and compliance.
