Import Tips
• Submit manufacturer's technical data sheet specifying exact vinyl acetate percentage to Customs for binding ruling
• Avoid common error of declaring as PVC plastisol; plastisols with plasticizers go to different subheadings
• Ensure packaging prevents moisture absorption which could trigger reclassification as chemically modified
