Import Tips

• The silicone coating is a chemical modification, but the base polymer remains poly(ethylene terephthalate), so classification stays in 3920.62.00

• Ensure the film is not self-adhesive; if it has an adhesive layer, it falls under heading 39.19

• Declare the silicone coating on the customs invoice for transparency
