Heading 3921Plastic plates, sheets, film, foil and strip n.e.c. in chapter 39

Chapter 39: Plastics and articles thereof

Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 392190 when importing or exporting plastic plates, sheets, film, foil, and strip that are not specifically categorized elsewhere in Chapter 39. For example, this code applies to a shipment of non-cellular plastic sheets used for packaging.

This code is distinct from HS-6 392010, which covers cellular plastic sheets. If your product is a rigid plastic sheet without air pockets or foam structure, 392190 is the correct classification.

The 392190 line specifically includes various forms of plastic materials that are flat, such as films and sheets, used in a wide array of applications from construction to packaging. These products are typically made from polyethylene, polypropylene, or PVC.

When considering this code, think about the end-use of your product. If you are shipping plastic sheets for use in signage or as protective covers, 392190 is appropriate. Ensure that the product does not fall under other specific categories like films used for agricultural purposes.
