Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the material is waste, parings, or scrap of EVA, not in primary form
Chapter note 7 excludes waste and scrap transformed into primary forms from heading 39.15, but if not transformed, it falls under 39.15.
If the recycled pellets contain significant non-polymeric additives or other polymers
If the EVA content is below 95% or the material is a blend, classification may shift to the 'Other' subheading.

The Tariff Assistant works through the GRI rules on your specific product to reach the right tariff item — and can price the duty on it in the same conversation.
Import Tips & Compliance
• For recycled plastics, be prepared to provide documentation on the source and composition to the CBSA, as recycled content may raise questions about classification
• Confirm that the pellets are in primary form (e.g
• granules) and not waste or scrap, which would fall under heading 39.15
• If the recycled material contains impurities above 1%, it may be considered a composition, potentially affecting the tariff item
