Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 392051 when importing or exporting plates, sheets, film, foil, and strips made from acrylic polymers, specifically polymethyl methacrylate. For example, a shipment of clear acrylic sheets used for display cases would fall under this code.

This code is distinct from HS-6 392052, which covers similar products but specifically includes those that are self-adhesive. If your acrylic film does not have an adhesive backing, then 392051 is the correct classification.

The HS-6 392051 line focuses on non-cellular, non-reinforced acrylic products, meaning they are solid and not combined with other materials. This includes items like transparent sheets used in signage or protective covers.

When classifying your products, consider the thickness and intended use. For instance, acrylic film used for window protection or light diffusers would also be classified here, while reinforced acrylic sheets would not.
