Heading 3921 — Plastic plates, sheets, film, foil and strip n.e.c. in chapter 39
Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof
Plain-language overview
Use HS-6 392119 when importing or exporting cellular plastic plates, sheets, or films that are not specified elsewhere in chapter 39. For example, a shipment of polycarbonate cellular sheets used for greenhouse roofing would fall under this code.
This code specifically covers cellular plastics, which are lightweight and often used for insulation or structural purposes. In contrast, HS-6 392111 applies to non-cellular plastic plates, sheets, and films, such as standard polyethylene sheets.
When considering HS-6 392119, think of products like expanded polystyrene sheets or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) films that have a cellular structure. These materials are often utilized in packaging, construction, and automotive applications.
If you are dealing with plastic sheets that are rigid and solid, you would look at different classifications, such as HS-6 392111 or 392112 for non-cellular types. Understanding the cellular nature of your product is key to proper classification.
