Plain-language overview

Use HS-6 392590 when importing or exporting plastic builders' wares that don't fit neatly into other categories. This includes items like plastic fittings and accessories used in construction. For example, a shipment of plastic corner pieces for drywall installation would fall under this code.

This code is distinct from HS-6 392591, which covers specific plastic sheets and panels. If your product is a molded plastic part used in construction, such as a plastic window frame, you would classify it under 392590 instead of 392591.

The HS-6 392590 line captures a variety of plastic products used in building and construction that are not specified elsewhere. This includes items like plastic pipes, connectors, and other construction-related plastic goods.

When determining if 392590 applies, consider the end use of your product. If it’s a plastic item designed for construction purposes but not explicitly listed in other headings, this code is likely appropriate.
