Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 392071 when importing or exporting non-adhesive plates, sheets, or films made from regenerated cellulose. For example, if you're shipping rolls of biodegradable film used in packaging, this code applies.

This code specifically covers products that are non-cellular and not reinforced, laminated, or combined with other materials. In contrast, HS-6 392072 would apply to similar items that are self-adhesive, which is an important distinction for compliance.

You might encounter HS-6 392073, which includes non-adhesive films made from other types of plastics. Make sure to classify your products correctly based on the material composition and adhesive properties.

Regenerated cellulose products under this code are often used in applications like food packaging, labels, and medical supplies, making it essential to understand the specific use cases when classifying.
