Alternative Classifications

This product could be classified differently depending on its characteristics or intended use.

3901.20.10Same rate: 41.5%

If specific gravity exactly 0.94 or if medium density

LLDPE or MDPE with spec grav 0.926-0.94 uses 3901.20.10 subheading

3902.10.00Same rate: 41.5%

If polypropylene homopolymer instead of polyethylene

Chapter 39 classifies by predominant monomer; polypropylene goes to heading 3902

3901.90.10Lower: 35% vs 41.5%

If copolymer with <95% ethylene and no specific copolymer subheading

Other ethylene copolymers not meeting 95% threshold classify in 3901.90

Import Tips & Compliance

Request technical data sheet confirming specific gravity and melt index; declare as primary form pellets not compounded articles; avoid classifying pre-compounded masterbatch under 3901
