More Specific Codes
This product may fall under a more specific subheading:
Alternative Classifications
This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.
If the PET has an intrinsic viscosity of 0.7 dl/g or higher
This heading covers poly(ethylene terephthalate) with a higher viscosity, typically used for bottles, which is a more specific classification.
If the product is a polyester other than poly(ethylene terephthalate)
This covers other polyesters in primary forms not elsewhere specified, such as polybutylene terephthalate.
If the material is waste, parings, or scrap rather than virgin primary-form pellets
Waste and scrap of plastics are classified under heading 39.15, not as primary forms.

Import Tips & Compliance
• Ensure the product is in primary form (pellets) and not further worked, as this determines classification under 3907.69.00
• Keep a technical data sheet showing the polymer composition to support the tariff classification if requested by CBSA
• Verify whether a Most-Favoured-Nation (MFN) rate applies based on the country of origin, and consider free trade agreements that may reduce the duty
